email problem new SMTP server

Hello,

I have a web application that sends an auto email when a user makes a change to a schedule. It use to work fine using the mail.website.com smtp server. I read the email news and followed the recommendation to change to smtp.website and I continue to be unable to send emails from within the web application. Any thoughts.

Thank you,

Lucy

 

Use localhost as SMTP host.

for(int i=0;i<emailaddress.Count;i++)
{
// Response.Write("hello this is the message "+message);
MailMessage msgMail=new MailMessage();

// msgMail.To="[email protected]";
msgMail.To=(string)emailaddress;

msgMail.From="[email protected]";

msgMail.Subject="schedule changes";

string strBody=message;

msgMail.Body=strBody;

//SmtpMail.SmtpServer="smtp.napschedule.com";
SmtpMail.SmtpServer="smtp.localhost";
try
{
SmtpMail.Send(msgMail);
}

 

SmtpMail.SmtpServer="smtp.localhost";


needs to change to ...

SmtpMail.SmtpServer="localhost";

I have a similar problem, I am running a forum and the program requires a SMTP Server Loginname and SMTP Server Password in order for responses to be emailed to forum users. Can I use my adiscountASP.net account username and password as the SMTP username and password or does the SMTP server have a specific username and password? Thank you!

 

You can use localhost as your Smtp Server ( i.e SmtpMail.SmtpServer="localhost").You dont need to set the username/password property.
