Karen Healey
Hello,

I'm working on a page that needs to send email and I'm at the point where I just want to test sending email to myself and I get an error, pasted below (scroll down).

If anybody has any ideas on this, please let me know. I've been poking around the documentation and can't come up with the answer yet. I SUSPECT it has something to do with the way my PC is set up for my broadband internet connection.

I did check IIS and that seems to be OK. I also put a text file with a test mail message in it in the C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Pickup and the message got sent.

My operating system is Windows XP Professional.

Here is the C# code I'm using which is almost straight from the documentation.
private void SubmitButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

MailMessage myMail = new MailMessage();

myMail.From = "Click here to reveal e-mail address";

myMail.To = "Click here to reveal e-mail address";

myMail.Subject = "UtilMailMessage001";

myMail.Priority = MailPriority.Low;

myMail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;

myMail.Body = "<html><body>UtilMailMessage001 - success</body></html>";

SmtpMail.Send(myMail);

}

Thanks,

Karen Healey

Try adding ...
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
... as noted here: http://www.orcsweb.com/articles/emailasp.asp" target="_blank">http://www.orcsweb.com/articles/emailasp.asp

A couple of people suggested the same thing so I tried this and got a
different error! There is nothing wrong with my email address.

This is fun...

Your local SMTP service is now allowing relay. You might want to tell it to
allow relay for 127.0.0.1

That was it! Thank you! I was already going down that path (I had gotten
to the screen where you set it) but didn't know what IP address I should put
there.

Thank you!

Guha, Rahul
Now you will have to take this up with your System Eng. Team because it
seems that the localserver ( the web server machine ) doesn't have
permission relaying the emails. This is a typical error ( I faced that ).
The only way out is finding a machine that has permission for relaying the
email. For more clarification you can visit MS newsgroup ( which was the
source of my info ).
