How to obtain server info?

[Mark F.]

How can I get the user's ISP SMTP sever name or IP address? This would be
for a user feedback form in Windows Form applications. Checking the
registry, or using CDO is not a good option with every machine.

Thanks,
Mark

Perhaps a different approach would be better and easier: instead of
trying to send a mail use a HttpRequest to post the Userfeedback to a
webserver of yours.

Or try to open a new mail message using the user's configured default
mail program and let the user send it. Something like start new
Process("mailto:yo*******@server.tld?subject=feedb ack");
