Hi,
I'm having problems with SmtpClient. I have the following set in my
web.config:
<configuratio n>
<system.net>
<mailSettings >
<smtp>
<network host="mysmtp" port="25" userName="myuse r"
password="mypas s" defaultCredenti als="true" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
.... lots of other stuff
</configuration>
Now, this code doesn't send the mail (which is the problem)
protected void SendEmail_Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.To.Add( new MailAddress("to Mail"));
message.From = new MailAddress("Fr ommail");
message.Subject = "This is my subject";
message.Body = "This is the content";
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
try
{
client.Send(mes sage);
Response.Write( "Email sent correctly");
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
Response.Write( "Send failure: " + exc.ToString()) ;
}
}
But - this does work:
protected void SendEmail_Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.To.Add( new MailAddress("to Mail"));
message.From = new MailAddress("Fr ommail");
message.Subject = "This is my subject";
message.Body = "This is the content";
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("myS MTP", 25);
NetworkCredenti al SMTPUserInfo = new NetworkCredenti al
("myUser", "myPass");
client.UseDefau ltCredentials = false;
client.Credenti als = SMTPUserInfo;
try
{
client.Send(mes sage);
Response.Write( "Email sent correctly");
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
Response.Write( "Send failure: " + exc.ToString()) ;
}
}
So, it looks as though if I set the server and username etc manually,
it works, but if I use the default from web.config it doesn't.
Now, logic might say that it isn't reading the data from the
web.config, but I think it might be (at least partially) because I can
see the smtp server in the SmtpClient properties.
Any idea?
Thanks

Just to confirm - if I use MailSettingsSec tionGroup to get the config
settings, they are all there.
So this is quite confusing - if I use the default settings it doesn't
work, if I set them manually it does.
Yeah.
Don't rely on the default configuration stuff.

Yeah.

Thanks, that's a good idea - using XML. And I think I'll do that as a
solution.
It's still beyond me why the default stuff isn't working. If anyone
knows I'd be grateful.
David
The config file is using the default credentials while your code doesn't.
What if you use defaultCredenti als="false" instead ?
Also check the exception to see what i have to offers (it can help to sort
beetween not being able to connect to a smtp server or being able to connect
but having an authentication issue etc...)

Yes that worked. Thanks.
The documentation (that I have) on this is sparse. What does
defaultCredenti als do?
I assumed that if it was set to true, and you set up the email
settings like I have, it would use *those* automatically? Obviously
this isn't the case - if you could point me towards some documentation
that would be great.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Have hunted around on the groups and can't find anything, hence.
I've tried this against 2 mail servers (mailtraq and hmailserver) and
it occus with both.
The problems seems to be that when the SMTPClient attaches to the
server and the server sends it greeting message, if anything other than
+OK is received by the client it throws an exception and falls over.
