I've finished developing a simple game with visual basic and I'm ready to send it to some friends so they can give it a go. So I log onto my gmail and attach all the necessary files, but when i try to send the email, 3 of my 5 files get blocked, including the .exe file which is crucial to running the program. I tried on my Microsoft outlook as well and no luck. Does anybody know of a way to send a program over email (or know of any emails that accept these types of files). Or maybe somebody knows of different file formats that I can convert my visual basic stuff to and then send it. Or maybe even somewhere i can upload my programs privately and then have my buddy downbload it there.
I want to send my Visual Basic Programs to a backup email address that will allow me to save the .exe files.I have spent years developing programs for dictionarys/translators of foreign languages, but my problem is that I keep loosing all my research and the places that I have been living in. So I need an online email address to send all of my work to this way..I will be able to continue development.
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.)?
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 wouuld like to open outlook with new email with provided subject line, body message and attachment but no email address. User will enter the email address and click send . How can I do this?
I used following code but it gives me error for to address
i can send email through vb.net behind code but how do i implement so that the recipient cannot see the sender email and only the name?i had done alot of research but i can't find any solution about this problem
Are there any good books out there that will show someone how to set up a form using Visual basic that will take information and send it to the server and then send a recipient an Email?
make an app for me that just sends an email of text from a textbox. if u have a source to one or anything like that because i have tried over and over and it just doesnt work
I want to send an email using the default email client. If this is not possible, then Outlook will be the client of choice.* I want to be able to send attachments.* I would like to use Read Receipt on outgoing emails if possible.
I'm wanting to transfer data between two programs. Basically, I have one program which is the "monitor" program. It opens another program and will fill a textbox in said program and then click a button on the program. When everything is done after clicking the button, the program will need to send something back to the monitor to tell it to close the program and open up another one to start the process over again.
We are upgrading a suite of data acquisition and analysis routines from VB6 programs to a mixture of VB.NET, VB6, and Matlab programs. We want to keep the system modular (separate EXEs) so we can easily create specialized stand-alone analysis programs without having to constantly upgrade one massive application. We have used MBInterProcess to send messages between EXEs when all the programs were written in VB6 and this worked perfectly for us (e.g., to have the data acquisition EXE send the latest file name to a stand-alone data display program). Unfortunately, this ActiveX cannot be used within Matlab or VB.NET to receive messages. We are wondering what is the simplest string message passing system (pipes, registered messages, etc) that we could adopt. Right now we are just polling to see if new file was written in a specific folder, which can't be the best solution. Our ideal solution would not require a huge investment in time learning nuances of Windows (we are biologists, not full-time programmers) and would work in both WinXP and 64-bit versions of Windows.
In response to the queries, we have wrapped the entire Matlab session within a VB6 program that has the MBInterProcess ActiveX control. That works but is not a great solution for us since it will probably lock us into WinXP forever (and certainly will prevent us from using the 64-bit version of Matlab). The latest version of Matlab (2009a) can access .NET functions directly, so we assume one solution might be to use the .NET library to implement pipes (or something similar) across programs. We would like to recreate the elegantly simple syntax of the MBInterProcess ActiveX and have a piece of code that listens for a message with that program's top-level Windows name, and then call a specific Matlab m-file, or VB.NET function, with the string data (e.g., file name) as an argument.
I Was Wondering Is It Possible To Send Data/Text Across Programs During Runtime. I've Heard Of Something Called API, I Heard It Somewhere and It Sounded Like It Had Something To Do With What I Want. Or Not, I Don't Know. Anyways Heres a simple example Of What I Want To Do

the following code gives me error even though it worked on youtube, its supposed to send an email using vb [URL] (i was connected to the internet) (the email adresses and password are correct in my code
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")
I'm Using Visual Basic and the APP consists of 2 Textbox and a Command Button (Simply Testing it). When another user downloads the App and type their texts and click the command button, it would be sent to my email account.

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.
