I'm trying to create a function that sends an email everyday at a specific time. I thought threading.timer would work but i haven't figured it out yet. I don't get errors when its executed but it also does nothing.
Private Shared Sub Main(ByVal args As String())
'get today's date at 9:00 AM

I am sending an email with an attachment using the following Code
Dim msg As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(req.EmailFrom, req.EmailTo)
Dim att As New System.Net.Mail.Attachment("C:Documents and SettingsmichaelrDesktop1216259.pdf")
With msg
.Attachments.Add(att)
[code]....
The file size of the attachment is 396KB, upon the recipient receiving the email outlook shows the file size as 543Kb. Strange thing is if I send an email with the same attachment using outlook the file size is 396Kb.I understand that file sizes can increase due to the attachment being base 64 encoded as opposed to just raw binary.What I am failing to see is why outlook send a file which is 396KB in size but in code when sending it, the same file is 543Kb.
how would i implement a way that i would not hard code the email message that the application send to email recipients? how will i also include email message formatting (text in bold, italic, etc.)?

mail.To.Add("destination-email@whatever.com")

Is the problem that I need to show "credentials" (i.e. user/pass)? If so, what would those credentials be? Can I use my yahoo email SMTP server with my login info to do it? And is this all I'd need to add to add the credentials?

(before the smtp.Send, of course)

View 1 RepliesI wrote a program that runs on a timer and pings the computers on the network, if any of them go offline it emails me. The problem is the timer runs every 20 seconds and if a computer is rebooted I get email 15 - 20 times until it comes back online.
Is there a way for it to only email me once every 20 minutes or so? Or to only email me if a different computer goes offline, then I don't keep getting the same email.
