I want to send an email to my gmail id from my web application. For now I was sending from my same id(i.e. from/to on same ID).

Code:

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
                MailAddress fromAddress = new MailAddress("navneet7988@gmail.com");
                MailAddress toAddress = new MailAddress("navneet7988@gmail.com");
                MailMessage message = new MailMessage(fromAddress, toAddress);
                message.Subject = "Feedback";
                message.IsBodyHtml = false;
                message.Body = "navneet";
                message.Priority = MailPriority.Normal;
                message.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;

                smtpClient.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
                smtpClient.Port = 587;
                smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
                smtpClient.Credentials = new               System.Net.NetworkCredential("navneet7988@gmail.com", "password");
                smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
                smtpClient.Send(message);

Error on sending is

The remote name could not be resolved: 'smpt.gmail.com'

                oMsg.To.Add(new MailAddress("yyy@gmail.com", "xxx"));
                oMsg.Subject = "Packet Parsing Problem";
                oMsg.Body = " Problem Occuread test mail";
                oMsg.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
                oMsg.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
                oMsg.IsBodyHtml = false;
                oMsg.Priority = MailPriority.High;
 
                SmtpClient oSmtp = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587);
                oSmtp.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;

The remote name could not be resolved: 'smpt.gmail.com'

you are using smpt.gmail.com
insted of this smtp.gmail.com => use it's working

MailAddress mailfrom = new MailAddress ( "frommail@gmail.com" );
            MailAddress mailto = new MailAddress ( "tomail@gmail.com" );
            MailMessage newmsg = new MailMessage ( mailfrom, mailto );

            newmsg.Subject = "Subject of Email";
            newmsg.Body = "Body(message) of email";

            ////For File Attachment, more file can also be attached

            //Attachment att = new Attachment ( "G:\\code.txt" );
            //newmsg.Attachments.Add ( att );

            SmtpClient smtps = new SmtpClient ( "smtp.gmail.com", 587 );
            smtps.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
            smtps.Credentials = new NetworkCredential ( "mail@gmail.com", "pwd" );
            smtps.EnableSsl = true;
            smtps.Send ( newmsg );

Solution 6

hi 07navneet,

Your original code is fine. Let try this. Ping the smtp.gmail.com, get its IP address and replace the smtp.gmail.com in your code with the IP address.

Thanks,
Bryian Tan
