Sending Mails through ASP.Net

[rhyme2ri2]

Hi!!
I'm trying to send mail thro' asp.net using SMTP........
but it doesn't work...
I'm using following code:
MailMessage msg=new MailMessage();
StringWriter strwr=new StringWriter();
HtmlTextWriter htmlwr=new HtmlTextWriter(strwr);
htmlwr.RenderBeginTag("html");
htmlwr.RenderBeginTag("head");
htmlwr.Write("Welcome");
htmlwr.RenderEndTag();
htmlwr.RenderBeginTag("body");
htmlwr.Write("Hello frnd....welcome to our website");
htmlwr.Write("Thanks for registration");
htmlwr.RenderEndTag();
htmlwr.RenderEndTag();
msg.From="[e-mail]";
msg.To=txtemail.Text;
msg.Subject="Welcome to StateMgmt";
msg.Body=strwr.ToString();
msg.BodyFormat=MailFormat.Html;
SmtpMail.Send(msg);


Can anyone help me out.....I don't know my concept is correct or not.....i'm a beginner rite now....
Any response will be appreciated..

I can't see your smtpserver declared, declare this and post the result. Also make sure that you use system.web.mail.

Hope that this helps.

Hello!
Thro' the above code i have a mail saved in my inetpub\mailroot\queue folder as an internet mail message......
As u said when i declare the smtpserver as follows after mailmsg.bodyformat:

SmtpMail.SmtpServer="localhost";
try
{
SmtpMail.Send(msg);
Response.Redirect("welcome.aspx");

}
catch(Exception exc)
{
Response.Write("Sorry ur mail could not be sent:"+exc.ToString());
}

Now it gives me following error:
"Sorry ur mail could not be sent:System.Web.HttpException: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object. ---> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004020F): The server rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server response was: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [e-mail] --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.RuntimeType.InvokeDispMethod(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Object target, Object[] args, Boolean[] byrefModifiers, Int32 culture, String[] namedParameters) at System.RuntimeType.InvokeMember(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object target, Object[] args, ParameterModifier[] modifiers, CultureInfo culture, String[] namedParameters) at System.Type.InvokeMember(String name, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object target, Object[] args) at System.Web.Mail.LateBoundAccessHelper.CallMethod(T ype type, Object obj, String methodName, Object[] args) at System.Web.Mail.LateBoundAccessHelper.CallMethod(O bject obj, String methodName, Object[] args) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Web.Mail.LateBoundAccessHelper.CallMethod(O bject obj, String methodName, Object[] args) at System.Web.Mail.CdoSysHelper.Send(MailMessage message) at System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(MailMessage message) at StateManagement.WebForm1.cmdregister_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in d:\inetpub\wwwroot\statemanagement\login.aspx.cs:l ine 81 "

Here are some suggestions as to what may be going wrong:
System.Web.Mail FAQ

Is your machine in an network, or standalone?
If ur machine is in network. then For STMPSever directly specify ur SMTP Mail Server.

Also see if u r using Anti Virus. If yes then see whether it is blocking port 25 or not in Port blocking area. If it is blocking it then unblock it.
