E-mail Error Picture Link

 

Try that picture, I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, and look at the bottom right side, I thought I had the right server too :mad: , me no understanday!

assuming you have a reference to System.Web ( or it wouldnt allow you to get as far as you have ) this should work.

are you specifying the correct mail server? eg: mail.hotmail.com

here's a quick sample i built up that works for me:

       Dim eMail As New Mail.MailMessage()
       With eMail
           .To = "csharp_@hotmail.com"
           .From = "dynamic"
           .Subject = "mail test"
           .Body = "some text"
           .BodyFormat = Mail.MailFormat.Text
           Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.hotmail.com" '/// mail server
           Mail.SmtpMail.Send(eMail)
       End With

:) Thank you

you should also stick it in a Try Catch statement

This code piece doesn't seem to do the trick for me. Do I need to log in to Hotmail first? Or should I be able just to use the hotmail SMTP server without further?

I posted a few days ago a code on how to send emails without the CDO's, can't remember the link, but was a recent one
