Define "successful ." Sending an email is indeed easy. Making sure it gets
where it's going is impossible. The message is often passed from one SMTP
server to another, and there is no rule that the POP3 server that eventually
receives it must notify the sender that it has been received. In addition,
the POP3 server may delete it if it is configured to do so, or the client
may delete it, or the user may ignore or delete it. Your only assurance that
the email has been received is if the recipient voluntarily sends a receipt
or a response.

I want to use the new System.Net.Mail instead of the old System.Web.Mail. I'm getting an error "Hot not specified" when I try to do my last two lines: System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient SMTP = new SmtpClient(); SMTP.Send(Message); //Error happens here But the thing is, in my old use of System.Web.Mail, I never had this problem.

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.
