Mail.MailMessage appears as post instead of email message

Hi,

I have a bit of vb.net code that's sending emails to various public
outlook folders from a web server. The problem is that all the
messages appear in the folder as a "post" with the thumbtack icon.
When I send a test email from my outlook client to the same folder, it
appears as an email message. When I send a test email from my Yahoo
account, it appears as a "post" message.

Why is this happening? I need the emails to show up as emails, because
I have an outlook add-in that will only operate on emails, not on
posts.

The code is compiled into a component class:

Dim objMail As New Mail.MailMessage()
objMail.To = <public outlook folder email address>
objMail.From = <my email address>
objMail.Subject = "Test - " & Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")
objMail.Body = "test"

System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(objMail)
