Most User Friendly Way To Send Email Programmically
Jul 6, 2009
After researching all the possible ways of sending the output of my program to an email address, I have yet to settle on the most user friendly way to go about this.I have created a form for a property management company I work for. I would like to send the output to a designated email address by a click of a button.Now given that the average user that will be using this software may not be necessarily tech savvy, I would like to make it do this as simply as possible and that means not having to know the smtp. Also considering that the user may not be on their terminal when using this software, using outlook to send the output may not be the best way to go about this. I have tried adding a webbrowser control and sending the email via html but I am not sure if that is the most logical way to do this.

I am developing a website where I need to send confirmation link to the user's e-mail account when he/she signs-up.
When user clicks this link then a field userEnable in database changes from "false" to "true".
How do I send a confirmation e-mail to a user when user clicks on the signup button.
When user clicks on this confirmation link then how would the field UserEnable change from "false" to "true"
I am using asp.net 4.0 with VB.NET as the language and SQL Server 2008 for my database.

Using VB.Net 2003, how do you code to send an email with no user interaction? I do not want any windows to open or require any sort of input from the user. The idea is for the user to be able to request technical assistance by simply pressing a button.

I have created a vb application connected to MS Database. I have used try..catch statements to trap exceptions and display messages on the error found, but the problem is that these messages are too technical for the end users to understand. Is there a way of retrieving the error number or code of that exceptions thrown so that i can customize the message for the users?

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.

I'm trying to get my program to send very simple text email messages. I did do a search beforehand, and found that I was having the same issue as someone else, but the specific question I have was not answered --
I've learned that if you're trying to send mail, you need an SMTP server... I found this list here but every one of them I've tried yields the same "Failure sending mail" error.
Here's my
Dim mail As New MailMessage()
mail.From = New MailAddress("me@mycompany.com")
mail.To.Add("destination-email@whatever.com")
[CODE]...
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?
smtp.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("MyUsername", "MyPassword")
(before the smtp.Send, of course)

I have to make a basic program that: Create a program with a simple interface that
1. Asks the user type his/her email address into a textbox.
2. When the user clicks the "Evaluate Email Address" button, one of two message boxes pops up: "That is a valid email address!" with an "Information" icon, or "That is an invalid email address!" and on a second line, "Please retype your email address.", with an "Exclamation" icon
3. To be considered valid, the email address must -include an "@" symbol, and -it must end in either ".com", ".net", or ".org" or ".edu" (I don't know how to check a string and test if its last four characters end with any of these and make it say not valid email address. I think I might have to use a case statement)

I 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.

I am trying to send registration/ activation information via email, but don't want to store my authentication within the vb.net app and therefore not wanting to use .NET SMTP. I have the below php script that works from a website, but I can't seem to get the variables sent to it using the code posted. Any advice with either the .NET code or the php code?
Dim errorString As String = "test string"
Dim postData = "errorString=" & errorString
Dim request As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create("http://webaddress.com/test.php")
