Use SMTPClient To Send An Email Message?
Aug 3, 2010
This is my first time trying to create a windows application that can be used to send an email message. It's a new requirement that we have to satisfy. Our customer information is saved in a database and we needed to send them some advertisement messages to some or all of them.
I created a windows application but unfortunately I couldn't send a single email message.
I tried to modify my code several times with no luck; each time I'm getting a different exception message. I tried to search the wen for more information regarding this issue but I end up with the same result.
I don't know if I must have an smtp server to relay the messages and be able to send them. If this is the case how I can do that? Is it possible to accomplish this with something else.
Dim Message As MailMessage = New MailMessage()
Dim Smtp As New SmtpClient()
Dim SmtpUser As New System.Net.NetworkCredential()
[Code]....

I am trying to send mail using SmtpClient() within my Winforms VB.Net program .Here is the code:
Dim SmtpServer As New SmtpClient()
Dim mail As New MailMessage()
Dim _Attachment As String[code]......
For Host Name I using mail dot metaprosystems dot com, the user name and password are the user name and password I use to log into my mail server. This work when the To address is within my domain. For example bob at-sign metaprosystems.com. It does not work when I send to an email outside my domain. I get this exception in my catch block: "Mailbox name not allowed. The server response was: sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)"
Whether I include an attachment or not doesn't matter.I believe the problem is with my web hosting company, but so far they haven't come up with a solution. I need so advice as to what to tell them to do to fix this. Alternatively,

I'm writing a program that will scan a barcode from a serial scanner and store the information in a MySQL database.
In the program I would like to check for when the scanner is not working. If it's not working then send me an email. I set a variable called MessageBody which sets the body of the email that is going to be sent. The subroutine is called EmailError(). So I can call it in other subroutines. I would like to take a variable or something and put it in the Message body so I can have a dynamic message body and not a static boring one.

When I did this on my lap top it was working fine, when I put this project on my work PC it won't send the message.

I have spent at least 6 hours trying to write a program that will send emails to a constant list of email addresses. I was trying to make it so all that I need to type is the subject, body, and "nickname". I wanted to use the same email to send the message every time (yahoo or gmail address), and the recipients to be a constant list of emails.

I am using the EmailMessage to send email message(s) from my local computer. I am also using the SMTP server of my ISP and generally it works just fine. However, some of the emails are never delivered to the destination (bouncing emails) and i get "Mail Delivery failed: returning message to sender" How do i check if the message can be delivered rather than receive the "returning message to sender"? Should i check the destination email server? I have no idea from where to start actually.

ok here is my problem, im making a little app for school since our school blocks pretty much everything so here is my plan a student makes 2 gmail accounts one for school one at home.
in the program at school (client) they put a site request into a textbox and they hit send, the request is then sent to the home pc gmail account and another app on the other side downloads the full site that they have requested and then sends them an email back with an attachment of the complete website, it is then opened in a browser and they have the site, simple idea and it would be easy except.
my school blocks the smtp protocols in vb, even outlook cant use gmail accounts only the schools registered email, however, you can access gmail on the internet without any blockages and you can send and recieve on the gmail website.so how can i use a webbrowser control to log the user into there gmail account through a custom gui, and send a string like www.facebook.com to the home pc gmail account, and then use the web browser controll on the students laptop to recieve the response email through a web browser, is there some kind of gmail api i can use?

I have tried multiple variations of the following code, but I still get the same result. I am trying to have the last line "Issue Description: ...." to appear on a new line. I have tried vbCrLf, vbCr, and & Environment.NewLine & _ None of which work.
Just a note: The other emails are properly formatted. Also, if I add put 2 vbCr (s) at the end of the 'Issue Title' line then it looks normal.This one in particular seems to be a thorn in my side.
The result:
The code:
Dim mail As New MailMessage()
Dim strbody As String
strbody = Nothing

I am using the SMTPClient in my VB.Net application to send emails. It appears it is getting an email signature from somewhere. Where does it get this signature? It looks like it is using an Outlook signature but our company no longer uses Outlook so the signature is wrong. Is there a way to remove the signature before sending the email?

Dim Mailmsg1 As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage()
[code]....
It was working fine but suddenly since from yesterday, 2 mails are sent by same obj1.Send() (In both the mails date time are same.) I have not changed code or used any loop for sending mail.

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 already have the setting in Outlook to prevent automatic downloading of images but I still receive e-mail junk mail containing stationary. There is even a setting that prevents all images but that is the problem: It does it to ALL images.I would like to trap and move all messages with any kind of image in it and send it to a junk-mail folder. Someone told me that I might do it with a plug-in or an add-on and that it might be able to do this in VB.

I have written a VB.NET receivables application that takes an invoice number as a parameter from the EBS. I create a PDF of the invoice and use SMTP to generate an email to the vendor, attaching the PDF. I can attach other documents if my program can look them up. It works fine.
My client now is requesting to be able to attach other documents manually to the automatically-generated email. Is there any way to stop in the middle of the process to allow this? [code]...

I'm looking for a control that will allow an user to create an email html message simulair to outlook but without the use of outlook. I'm now using outlook to create emails from my program, but if outlook is busy or has a popup open, it will generate an error and no message is send. The users of my program need to have full freedom in creating the message, all the program does is open the new email window, fill in the email addresses, subject and some basic information in the email.
Then the user can add text and/or images to it, before sending. What I need is a control/library that will give me a popup window with most of the basic editing stuff like adding images, putting text in different fonts and/or colors. I can probably create something myself to do this, but I don't have the time for it and it would be a waste of time if it already exists.
