Hi,

Quote:
bool blnResult = objMail.SendMail(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["supportEmail"].ToString(),

replace above statement with this..

bool blnResult = Convert.ToBoolean(objMail.SendMail(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["supportEmail"].value.ToString(), strFromMail, "Query from Live Help", strMailString));

even if you are getting the same error, then may be due to Email CLient object.

hope it helps.

hello
your problem occur following problem:-
your

C#

SendMail(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["supportEmail"].ToString(), strFromMail, "Query from Live Help", strMailString);

function return type is void that's why it can not be converted into bool .first check its return type and if its type is void than change it into bool and
return either true/false.

i hope your problem will solve if not please give me your comments.
