Problems sending email

[Srinivas]

Hi,

I am using ASP.NET SmtpMail to send email using the following code

public void SendEmail(string From, string To, string Subject, StringBuilder
Message, string Attachment, string mailFormat)
{
MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage ();
mailMessage.From = From;
mailMessage.To = To;
mailMessage.Subject = Subject;
mailMessage.Body = Message.ToString ();

if(mailFormat == "T")
{
mailMessage.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text;
}
else if(mailFormat == "H")
{
mailMessage.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;
}

SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "10.0.0.1";
SmtpMail.Send (mailMessage);
}

This code executes fine without error. But the email goes and sits in the
"C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Queue" folder.
SMTP service is running and cdosys.dll and cdonts.dll are installed.

My computer is connected to the internet through a Speedtouch 545 ADSL
router. I got the "10.0.0.1" by doing the ipconfig at command prompt.

Can anyone please guide me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Srinivas

But we had a really odd problem on Windows 2003 Server and sending
mail through our mail server. If our messages had \n instead of \r\n for
end of line, then the mail server just wouldn't send the message.

Very odd. I tested this on several other Windows 2003 Servers and
couldn't duplicate the issue. So, we ended up just changing our code
because Microsoft technical support couldn't provide any assistance.

They were just as baffled.

Hi srinivas:

Are there any informational or error messages from the SMTP service in
the event log?
