I want it so that at a certain time of the day, for example, 5pm, I want a email to be sent to the admin's email (adminemail@hotmail.com for example) just containing some numbers. How to get the program or show me some code to automatically send out an email at a specific time, and a follow-up question. Would this work if the program wasn't running.

Can you tell us what is missing from this code to get the email message sent?
Try
Dim SmtpServer As New SmtpClient()
Dim mail As New MailMessage()
SmtpServer.EnableSsl = True
SmtpServer.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("ouremail@gmail.com", "MyPasswordGoesHere")

I haven't done any VB coding since school (15 years ago) but currently have a need to run what "sounds" a fairly simple app at work. I'm hoping some of you might be able to give me some pointers as to whether or not my idea is possible, and if it is, how best to approach it.
I work for a company where we send a number of standard emails to potential clients asking them to contribute to our magazine . if no response we then send a number of follow up emails. each and every time I send a new email to a new prospect I'm editing one of our template emails, putting their name and email address into outlook and manually sending emails. Then for every reminder I'm going back into outlook, clicking reply all and then c&p'ing our second or third reminder emails in each and every time. needless to say at least 2-3 hours of my day are spent editing and resending the same emails on outlook.

I am trying to Send an Email with an attachment (using Gmail) but I keep getting errors like "Operation Timed out" or Failure Sending Email". It was working earlier today but I found out that i needed to add Using statement because the email was having a file open that had to be deleted after it was sent but afterwards it doesn't work.
Here's what I have (Portion of it):
Private Sub SendMailOneAttachment(ByVal un As String, ByVal pass As String, Optional ByVal smtp As String = "smtp.gmail.com")
Using oAttach As Net.Mail.Attachment = New Net.Mail.Attachment((Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData) & "\" & My.Computer.Name & "_" & fName & " .zip"))

What I want is to be able to launch an email from VB in the same way that MAILTO: does from a browser. ie. it launches an email from whatever the deault client is.One of the posts on here (linked from the FAQ) mentioned to use MAPI, but the problem is that I can't figure out which 'imports' I need to use.
Googling around I can find lots of excamples of MAPI code, but none mention the imports. If I just paste the code into my VB form it just says that the names are not declared.Another post indicated that these weren't functions from an import, but rather I had to add a MAPI componant of some kind from the toolbox onto a form - but I can't find any MAPI things in the toolbox either...

I am trying to send an e-mail via a CLR stored procedure in VB.NET.I have managed to send the HTML body, however I have had trouble with the embedded images.The images are stored in the SQL Server as nvarchar in an ASCII format. I stored them through code in the DB in the base MS Access application (it's the one that calls the CLR procedure). The format of the field is as follows: "255;216;255;224;0;..." (just an example of what the text in the field might begin like).The embedding of the images is supposed to be done through the following code:
Dim SQLcmd As New SqlCommandDim SQLConn As New SqlConnection("context connection=true")Dim RD As SqlDataReaderDim tmpImage As StringDim imagesArray() As LinkedResourceDim k As IntegerDim l As IntegerDim countImages As Integer
SQLcmd.CommandText = "SELECT dbo.tbl_email_resources.fld_image, dbo.tbl_email_resources.fld_cid, dbo.tbl_sent_history.fld_content_id " &
[code]....
However, what I get when I send the e-mail is the HTML body and a number of .dat files as attachments (the same number as the images), which contains (when opened with notepad) the above mentioned content of the field ("255;216;255;224;0;...etc" for the example I mentioned).I am sure I have got something wrong about the use of the CreateLinkedResourceFromString method, as the information I found on the internet was almost inexistent.
PS: Btw, I even tried it without the " tmpImage = Replace(tmpImage, ";", " ")" line.
Sending email from the application
View 18 RepliesI am trying to send emails from a simple form using ASP.NET (VB/C# I don't really care), and what does my head in severely is the fact that it seems so much harder to send an email using ASP.NET than it is in WinForms!
In WinForms, I can write some code to send an email in 2 minutes. But after reading tutorial after tutorial on ASP.NET I cannot figure out how to do it! It's so weird.
One thing that I don't get is that NONE of the examples demonstrate the use of mail.Username = ""; or mail.Password = ""; (For Example). They don't seem to use usernames or passwords when connecting to the server.
How can I send an email in asp.net just like I do in C# WinForms, or atleast if not the same way, is there a simple way?
I want to add this to my email body and i want it to look like this but it doesnt work.

I have created an application and I need to send emails to different addresses. I want to do this inside my application without automating email software like outlook etc. I have used CDO , and different activex like ostrosoft , chilkat etc .But is the same problem : Emails are sended correctly without error messages but :Some emails are received ( like in yahoo adresses), a lot of emails are marked as spam, and all the emails send to hotmail addresses are lost, not received. To send emails I'm using a regular domain, with smtp server, port, user name and password. And when I send emails from the same configuration on outlook express from the same computer, all the emails are received correctly.
