Configuration :: Emailing Using Different Smtp Host?
Aug 14, 2010
i have a web application in which i have a emailing module. in which i am currently using gmail smtp host but i need to allow any or all smtp host account to be used for sending emails like yahoo , hotmail etc.
for sending a mail i need to have port no , .Host, and .EnableSsl there r many many smtp host used for emailing . how do i configure my emailing modue to accomodate all the possible smtp host and set their host , port & enable ss1 so that any one using the emailing module can set their smtp host and use the module for emailing
Firstly, I'm a newbie to ASP.net, but have around ten years of ('classic') ASP and VB6 experience.I have spent the last 12 hours or so googling for a solution to this problem, so it's nothing obvious (to myself or anyone else I can find talking about it, at least). Things I have ruled out so far include:1) Lack of SMTP server (fixed)2) Firewall issues3) Web.config <mailsettings> directivesI am developing my app locally (VS-2010, Windows 7 Premium ). When I kick off my application containing a form with the PasswordRecovery control in it, and run the password recovery control, I get the error:
[Code]....
This I figured is because I am running Windows 7, which doesn't have IIS7.5 (and thus an SMTP server) running by default. So I enabled IIS 7.5 in component settings, and lo and behold there it was. However there was no SMTP server included (those kind folk at Microsoft like to randomly remove things in system upgrades).So I dug around and installed a free smtp mailserver "hMailServer", and set it up with a the relay mail server address I use with my O2 email, with default credentials.I ran the test and it confirmed that I was indeed reaching the server OK. It also said I could therefore reference Localhost as my smtp server.I also realised I was missing the web.config <mailsettings> directives, so included (under <system.net> <mailsettings>):
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from ="zenid@here.com"> <network host="localhost" defaultCredentials="true" port="20" /> </smtp>
The question: Is it possible to configure multiple SMTP servers or update the SMTP object server information at runtime?
Description of problem: The site I'm working on has a few pages which send emails. Our site is using Gmail so even though it's a custom domain our email is sent out though Gmail SMTP servers.
Some emails come from the system and some emails come from users in certain groups. I have an SMTP server configured with the admin email for the system e.g. admin@mysite.com This works fine and when I get the email it shows from admin@mysite.comOne of our user groups let's call it "groupA" has an email configured on our domain i.e. groupA@mysite.com When I send the email and specify a from address for the MailMessage object as groupA@mysite.com it still shows up in my outlook as coming from admin@mysite.com I did a little further testing and if I specify both the from address and the ReplyTo as groupA@mysite.com it will show as From=admin@mysite.com but when I choose reply in outlook it shows groupA@mysite.com My best guess is that Gmail is overwriting the From address with the SMTP user to prevent email spoofing.
I found this: http://www.systemnetmail.com/faq/4.1.aspx but it won't work for me since group A, B, and C all need to send emails from the same page.
When I first published my site, I tested it using my gmail account and worked like a charm first try (a rare feat for me ;) ). Now, I'd like to finish it up by having it send the emails from the account at the host. No joy... I asked the host if I had misunderstood the rather unhelpful info in the control panel and they advised that in my web config I should change:
I want to send email thought asp.net page for that I need to find SMTP Host and port number below is my code
Dim EMail As New MailMessage EMail.From = New MailAddress(Emailtaxebox.Text) EMail.[To].Add(New MailAddress("sa@gmail.com")) EMail.Subject = Firstnametextbox.Text + lastnametextbox.Text + "Registerd" EMail.Body = " This is content " EMail.IsBodyHtml = True
[code]....

I've been running a customer's webapplication using automatically generated email for some time, being hosted on our company's web server. Send mail was done using the System.Net.Mail API using a 3rd party SMTP server. The configuration has been done in the web.config in the system.net section, something like this:
Everything worked fine until we had to migrate to another hosting service; since then, send mail didn't work any longer with symtomatic "timeout" exceptions. We also tried using gmail and changing/omitting explicit port number specification, without any success. The server is running IIS 6 (Windows Server 2003 R2).

They work fine for the one app, but the other app gives me a relay error. Could this be because I'm using it on a separate domain? The one that works is "visitmychurch.tv" the other is "insidehcc.com".
I'm using one XP with SP 2 as my local Laptop PC . Its IIS has one default web site, of course, which is the site I'm working on. When some feature is finished I deploy it to my "production" site which is hosted somewhere else. Very common situation, I guess. This app uses email to notify customers of some particular events. Works on production, but sometimes I need to change something in the way those notifications work. Currently I have to upload the changes to "production" to check it out. Is there any way for me to set up smtp server on my local machine so I could work locally with those features?
I have a script that send a daily email to a list of recipients from a database. I am having a couple of emails failing to send and the try/catch/ex.message & ex.stacktrace doesn't give me enough information to show what the actual problem is. I have tried to do some smtp session logging but that seems to not be doable since I am running under Medium trust. Is their either another way to get this code to work on medium trust or another way to get detailed SMTP log info.

I am trying to send email from my asp .net code ,it is sending email to email ids except gmail.com. all mails with gmail.com is going into my Badmail folder in inet pub folder in my local system.
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(); client.Host = "mail.abc.com"; client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.PickupDirectoryFromIis; client.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("ab", "rr"); client.Port = 25; string to = "arvind.abes@gmail.com"; string from = "rvsales@westrvwholesaler.com"; MailMessage mail = new MailMessage(from, to); mail.Subject = "hello......?"; mail.IsBodyHtml = true; mail.Body = "hi, how are you?may be this will work"; mail.Priority = MailPriority.High; //client.EnableSsl = true; try { client.Send(mail); } catch (Exception ex) { Exception ex2 = ex; string errorMessage = string.Empty; while (ex2 != null) { errorMessage += ex2.ToString(); ex2 = ex2.InnerException; } Response.Write(ex2.Message); } mail.Dispose();
I've tried these settings, and also tried explicitly setting the properties of my SmtpClient object @ run-time. On send, I receive the following exception
"Failure sending mail. Unable to connect to the remote server - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 64.202.165.58:25"

I want to publish my project, and upload it to my host but I don't know how to to do that to convert my codes to .dll to protect it ? to take a copy of my database and upload it to the host and bind it all steps needed to complete that successfully
