Question : C# Linq statement conversion to VB.NET

I have been converting some C# code to VB for use in a web project. I'm not familiar with LINQ, but translating this code has been an extremely educational experience. I apologize if the code snippet does not format correctly. I've been able to convert all of the code so far except for the following statement:

1:
2:
3:
4:
messagesByOtherUsername = (from m in messages
                                           let otherUser = m.SenderUsername == username ? m.RecipientUsername : m.SenderUsername
                                           group m by otherUser into mbu
                                           select new JsMessagesByUsername { Username = mbu.Key, Messages = mbu.Select(m => new JsMessage { Id = m.MessageId, Sender = m.SenderUsername, Msg = m.MessageContents }).ToList() }).ToList();
