I'm quite new to dot.net but noticed you don't refer to a SMTP server
anywhere in your code so I assume it will look for a local SMTP server (?)

Do you have one set up?

Thanks,
I thought that might be the problem. Do you happen to know where I can
download a simple smtp server I am only going to use it in a test
environment?

think iis does ship with smtp server... all you need to do is set it up to
forward the request to say your isp's smtp server... that should sort you
out...
