I asked the following question before I followed theses instructions and got a form to be sent through my email (thank god!) http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/072606-1.aspx __________________________________________________________________ The code that work for me is as follows, and that may work for anyone using asp.net 2.0 as long as they also "Configure SMTP e-mail settings" in their "ASP.Net Web Application Administration Tool" with "visual web developer 2005" <%@ Page Language="VB" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Net.Mail" %></o> </o> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"></o> </o> <script runat="server"></o> </o> </o> Protected Sub SendEmail_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SendEmail.Click</o> '!!!

(I hear its easy but I?m not having any luck?) I have checked out heaps of walkthroughs on the matter, and I am using this one, and I like this one the best: http://www.sitepoint.com/article/sending-web-email-asp-net I have tried to use the example scrip on the above link and came up with heaps errors, so I tried to make the simplest form I could, here is what I came up with: <%@ Page Language="VB" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Mail" %></o> </o> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"></o> </o> <script runat="server"></o> </o> Dim objMail As New MailMessage()</o> objMail.From = "[email protected]"</o> objMail.To = "[email protected]"</o> objMail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html</o> objMail.Subject = "My first ASP.NET email"</o> objMail.Body = "This is my first email sent via ASP.NET. "</o> </o> SmtpMail.Send(objMail)</o> </o> </script></o> </o> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" ></o> <head runat="server"></o> <title>Untitled Page</title></o> </head></o> </o> <form id="form1" runat="server"></o> <div></o> </o> I HAVE NOT TRIED TO ADD TOO MUCH HERE, AS THE TOP SECTION IS COMING UP WITH ERRORS AND I AM SURE IS MISSING BITS I WOULD LOVE SOME GOOD CODE FOR THIS WHOLE THING If you were wandering what msresume means, I am making a site for My Supper Resume in my country</o> <td class="main"><input type="Submit" </o> id="btnSubmit" OnServerClick="btn_Click" value="Send" </o> runat="server" /></td> </o> </div></o> </form></o> </body></o> </html> This is the SMTP connection in my web.config: I would have used my discountasp.net smtp server but its not working, and my smtpout.secureserver.net (SMTP) definitely is working <system.net></o> <mailSettings></o> <smtp from="[email protected]"></o> <network host="smtpout.secureserver.net" password="**********" port="80" userName="[email protected]"/></o> </smtp></o> </mailSettings></o> </system.net></o> </o> This is the first error message I come up with, but I got a feeling theresmore to come..

OK to start with maybe there's a problem with using version 1.1 code with a version 2.0 site </o> </o> I just saw on the site I'm getting the code from (http://www.sitepoint.com/article/sending-web-email-asp-net ) that it is code for v1.1, and I usually use 2.0 and maybe it incompatible with my web.config or something????
I have been testing this form on my local computer using visual web developer debugger, I have not uploaded it, so I don?t know how visual web developer determines whether it?s a asp.net 1.1 site or asp.net 2.0
This would be the working web.config for ASP.NET 2.0 smtp: <configuration> <appSettings/> <connectionStrings/> <system.net> <mailSettings> <smtp> <network host="localhost" port="25" /> </smtp> </mailSettings> </system.net> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off"/> <compilation debug="false"> </compilation> </system.web> </configuration> The inherits for your code page: Imports System.Net.Mail Imports System.Net
