Send e-mail by VB .NET Windows application

Hi!
I am going to creat and send a mail message with a Win form Visual Basic .NET application. But the System.Web.Mail namespace may not be imported to the code (It just works in ASP .NET Web applications!?). What should I do? Which namespace is proper? Much obliged to you for your attention. Regards!

Yours thankfully,

But the System.Web.Mail namespace may not be imported to the code (It just works in ASP .NET Web applications!?)

You can use the System.Web.Mail namespace in a winforms app...the trick is, as it is with ASP.Net use, that you need to have a valid Smtp server to point to so the mail can be sent.

This example runs fine for me from a VB.Net winforms app (but of course I used some valid addresses and a valid Smtp server *grin*):

' Requires that you add this imports statement to the top of your class:
' imports System.Web.Mail
Dim oMailMessage As New MailMessage

oMailMessage.To = "somebody@somedomain.com"
oMailMessage.From = "nuisance@spammers.com"
oMailMessage.Subject = "Test - " + DateTime.Now
oMailMessage.Body = "Testing, testing"

SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "xx.xx.xx.xx"
SmtpMail.Send(oMailMessage)

MessageBox.Show("Message Sent!")
