how do i get TcpListener to accept multiple connections and work with each one individually?

I have an SMTP listener that works well but is only able to receive one connection. My C# code is below and I am running it as a service. My goal is to have it runnign on a server and parsing multiple smtp messages sent to it.

currently it parses the first message and stops working. how can I get it to accept the 2nd, 3rd, 4th... SMTP message and process it like it does the first?

here is my code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Net;
using System.IO;  

namespace SMTP_Listener
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {


            TcpListener listener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Any , 8000);
            TcpClient client;
            NetworkStream ns;

            listener.Start();

            Console.WriteLine("Awaiting connection...");
            client = listener.AcceptTcpClient();
            Console.WriteLine("Connection accepted!");

            ns = client.GetStream();

            using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(ns))
            {
                writer.WriteLine("220 localhost SMTP server ready.");
                writer.Flush();

                using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(ns))
                {
                    string response = reader.ReadLine();

                    if (!response.StartsWith("HELO") && !response.StartsWith("EHLO"))
                    {
                        writer.WriteLine("500 UNKNOWN COMMAND");
                        writer.Flush();
                        ns.Close();
                        return;
                    }

                    string remote = response.Replace("HELO", string.Empty).Replace("EHLO", string.Empty).Trim();

                    writer.WriteLine("250 localhost Hello " + remote);
                    writer.Flush();

                    response = reader.ReadLine();

                    if (!response.Star
