Re: How to Send WebMail to Yahoo id - ASP.NET Discussion Boards

First thing make clear, email cannot be send from localhost. If this error occurs form web then check the host id. Is is configured for SMTP mail.

The miracle is this--the more we share, the more we have.

I used the following code for sending mail to my gmail id and i used the smtp server address also. i tried with different codes and different email smtp address also still getting the same error.

MailMessage objEmail = new MailMessage();
objEmail.To = "someaddress@gmail.com";
objEmail.From = txtFrom.Text;
objEmail.Subject = "Test Email";
objEmail.Body = txtName.Text + ", " + txtMessage.Text;
objEmail.Priority = MailPriority.Normal;
objEmail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text;
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.gmail.com";

try
{

SmtpMail.Send(objEmail);
Response.Write("Your Email has been sent sucessfully - Thank You");
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
Response.Write("Send failure: " + exc.ToString());
}

You cannot use smtp.gmail.com or smtp.yahoo.com like this. Because these server are will rejuct your request for mail send.

If you purchase any web domain and if that domain is smtp enabled for you, then only you can send mail.

The miracle is this--the more we share, the more we have.

How could we know that whether that mail server is smtp enabled or not. Or Can we enable from our code.

No, You cannot enable server for smtp from your code due to security reason. As i know, none of the service provider gives us this facility to enable from code. You can do it by using their admin panel.

The miracle is this--the more we share, the more we have.

Ok. Thanks.

I found some codes from the google sending mails to Gmail and yahoo, how we can do that.

You have to use .NET Mail API, If you find, you will get lots of sample on that.

I Used this and different code from google also. but am getting the following error.Should i do some setting changes or something in the email account?

Try again with same code, but send emails on Gmail account and not yahoo. If you get error , post it again.

May be this will help you get a better idea ...

yes ?

One issue - will you have lots of phone lines, or will you not have many people using your site ?

Hi all,

I am sending bulk sms using http gateway , my problum is when i am sending 1000 msg. at a time ,then its taking around 10 minute to send this msg. ,so i want to reduce this time to 1 minute.

OK - and what would you like us to do ? If it's a http gateway, perhaps a faster internet connection would help ? Either way, your application is obviously evil.
