Mail not getting send.

[trialproduct2004]

Hi all,

i am having application in c# for sending mails.

I want to ask few question related to sending mail.

If address of smtp server is not set, then will the mails be send to
address specified in tomail field.

Is it neccessy to set smpt server address in mail message class.

Because in example given in msdn there is nothing done as such for
setting smpt server address.


Can someone tell me as this is very importany for me.

Any help will be truely apprecaited.

thanks in advance.

Hi,

Check this article:

You must set the SmtpMail.SmtpServer property if the mail server is located
in a machine different than localhost.

This works for me:
try
{
string machine = Environment.MachineName;
mail=new MailMessage();
mail.From = machine + "@mydomain.com";// OR any address
mail.To=strTo;
mail.Cc=strCC;
mail.Bcc=strBCC;
mail.Subject = strSubject;
mail.Body = strBody;
SmtpMail.SmtpServer="localhose";
// OR TRY "mail.mydomain.com";if you know it
// OR 1.1.1.127
SmtpMail.Send(mail);
}
catch(System.Web.HttpException ehttp){}

Since SmtpServer property is static, you should only have to set this
one in your app and not have to repete.

Hope this helps
