Using GMail with ASP.Net: error: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

[Carmine [www.thetotalsite.it]]

Hi,
I'm trying to use gmail smtp server for an asp.net application, but when I
try to send an email I get this error:

"The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure."

Of course, I have enabled ssl (enableSSL = true) and inserted the network
credentials for my account... but it still doesn't work.

How come does it happen?
How can I solve it?

I am using ASP.Net 2.0 and Google Apps.

Thanks in advance,

I tried, but it still doesn't work :-(
As the article explains, I have set the port to 587 or 465, but now I get
this error:

A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly
respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because
connected host has failed to respond

....Why?

Bye,

Firewall or port block?

Something is stopping you.

Can you setup outlook/express to just test it?
