i have a registration page where users register to become members. when they sign up, i sendan email to the user with further instructions to activate their membership. pretty normal stuff. anyway, whenever i try to send emails out from my site i get thefollowing error... "Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: <sample_email@blah.com> No such user here" this occurs with all valid emails that i am trying to send. here is my mail setting in the web.config... <mailSettings> <smtp from=[email protected] > <network host="localhost" userName="" password="" /> </smtp> </mailSettings> btw, this worked fine during development on my own server. all help will be appreciated as i have been beating my brains out for several hours.
thanks for the suggestion. however, i finally got it to work this way... <mailSettings> <smtp [email protected] > <network defaultCredentials='true' host='localhost' userName='' password='' /> </smtp> </mailSettings>
I've tried two options with no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Options 1: <mailSettings> <smtp from=[email protected]> <network defaultCredentials="true" host="localhost" userName="" password="" /> </smtp> </mailSettings> Options 2: <mailSettings> <smtp from=[email protected]> <network host="localhost" password="" userName="" /> </smtp> </mailSettings>
If you're trying to do an ASP.NET (2.0 or newer) Contact page like this: http://sdknuts.net/contact/Default.aspx PM me with a valid e-mail address and I'll send you the code. I've shared that code with a lot of DASP customers. Salute, Mark
