Using System.Web.Mail; error

[JPS]

When I add this to my references at the top of my form I get the error
message
"The type of namespace "mail" does not exist in the class or namespace
"System.Web [ar you missing an assembly or reference]"

Are you using .Net 1.1 or 2.0 (Mail is only available in 2.0)?

The errormessage above specifies "mail" in lowercase. Is that a typo in
the post or did you really use lowercase (it should be "Mail")?

At the top of the form you can only write "using clauses", not
"references". The real references (what assemblies can be used) should
be specified at project-level. Did you add a reference to System.Web (I
think) there?

The obvious question is did you add System.Web to your project references?

The System.Web.Mail namespace is definitely available in .NET 1.1. It
doesn't have all the same features, but that's a different matter.

The using statement should be:

using System.Web.Mail;
