Sending Email From Page

[John]

Hi there,

I'm sure this is very basic for those who know........... ...but can anyone
tell what I'm doing wrong?

I'm trying out a 'send email from page' from a Wrox book and getting the
following error:

"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
"

Basically I've got a textbox and a button and have place the following code
uder the click event:

Protected Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click

Dim message As New System.Net.Mail .MailMessage("a [e-mail]",
"an@email.c om")

message.Subject = "An Email Message From the web"

message.Body = Me.TextBox1.Tex t

Dim smtp As New System.Net.Mail .SmtpClient("lo calhost")

smtp.Send(messa ge)

End Sub

I'm developing this in VS 2005 Pro (nb not IIS).

Please help a beginner!

Best regards

You are trying to connect to the SMTP service running on your local host.
If you don't have one running then it has nothing to connect to. Try
connecting to your ISP's SMTP server instead.

SMTP service is not started

Hello Aidy and Alexey,

Thanks for your replies. Well I've added my email smtp server details but
I'm now getting another error, which I assume is my isp blocking outgoing
email?

ERROR = "Transactio n failed. The server response was:
<my.isp.serve r[my.isp.server.i p.address]>: Client host rejected: Access
denied"

Is there any way around this?

Thanks again.

John

you need to supply the proper credentials, also your isp may require
that the from match the account name. also set ssl if required.

Thanks Bruce. I see Sloan has some examples so I might try and work through
those as I'm fairly new to this area.

Thanks again.
