Sending mail

[Guest]

Hi,

just some newbie problem: I tried to send some emails out of vb.net code,
but the MailMessage class does not support any authentication. Is there any
way to send mail with auth login under vb.net? Will this feature be included
in the .net framework 2.0? If so, when will it be released?

Thanks a lot
peter

I suggest you use the Indy framework:

Mailmessage does allow authenticated e-mail on the 1.1 framework

the 2.0 framework does a better job.
