Thank you for your response, I did not know that the pop3 mail was only for
retrieval. I was getting an exception trying to use the
"System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail" class. The inner exception was stating that I
did not have permissions to relay the message, so I thought that I had to
pass authentication criteria to the mail server. I think its cause I am
currently not connected thru the ISP that I am trying to send the mail thru.
I will try the Smpt again later when I am connected thru my ISP.
Thanks again
Ken

Pop3 is a mail retrieval protocol. You cannot send mail using this
protocol.
Instead you should try using your ISP's SMTP servers to send mail.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I am trying to send mail from a c# app thru my ISP pop3 mail server. I
figured it would be similar to using SMTP, but use my username and
password for authentication. I guess what I am trying to do is the same thing
that outlook express does where you can send mail thru an account that you
set up. I would like my c# app to have the ability to email me when I get
an error or when a exception gets generated. If anyone has any examples or
can point me in the correct direction I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Ken
