Sending email - large attachments - timeout

[PROKA]

I am sending emails containing large attachments (~8 MB) and it takes more than 60 seconds to send the email.

It cannot send the email and I get "The operation has timed out."

 

is there a way to set unlimited timeout for sending emails?

I'm using the MailMessage class in System.net.Mail

 

Thanks.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.mail.smtpclient.timeout.aspx is probably worth a read.

found this before you post it, tried it and still I get the same error :(

Can you post the code that is not working?
