Hi experts,
I am testing Chapter 7 sample program.
How can I set up email send/receive for "Login>forgot passowrd?"?
My personal email address is hyungdoo@gmail.com. So I put it to Chapter 7 sample program's web.config as follows. But it doesn't work.
Your kind advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
====web.config========
.
.
?lt;appSettings>
<add key="EmailFrom" value="hyungdoo@gmail.com" />
<add key="EmailTo" value="hyungdoo@gmail.com" />
<add key="PageTitle" value="Wrox Photo Album"/>
?lt;add key="CurrentTheme" value="cleanred" />
?lt;/appSettings>
.
.
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
<network host="smtp.gmail.com" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>

Hi there,
Can you define "doesn't work"? Do you get an error? If so, what error do you get?
Also, I don't think you can use Google's mail server like that without putting a username and password in the <network /> element.
Cheers,
Imar

Hi Imar,
Thanks for your advice.
1. If I add my username and password like follows, I have follwing error messages.
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
<network host="smtp.gmail.com" userName="hyungdoo" password="mypassword" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
Server Error in '/Modification' Application.

2. If I change it like this:
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="hyungdoo@gmail.com">
<network host="smtp.gmail.com" userName="hyungdoo" password="my password" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
Then I have follwoing messages:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first u2sm991187pyb
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

3. If I change it like this:
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="postmaster@myhostingname.net">
<network host="smtp.myhostingname.net" userName="myusername" password="mypassword" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
Then I have two kinds of results:
1) If the username's email address is in this hosting site, it's good to send out.
2) If the username 's email address is not in this hosting site, it's not. The error message from here is:
Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: <sungsook.park@gmail.com> No such user here
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Net.Mail.SmtpFailedRecipientException: Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: <sungsook.park@gmail.com> No such user here
Source Error:
An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.
Stack Trace:
I hope these several status will be helpful to you.
Thanks,

For the SSL error, you need to set the EnableSsl property on the SmtpClient instance like this:
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true
Hope this helps,

Hi Imar,
I did it successfully in Chapter 6 like this:
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="myname@myhostingsite.com">
<network host="localhost" userName="" password="" port="25" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
Thanks for your kind help.

Using The Beer House Contact.aspx page, How would I enableSsl in the code-behind:
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
// send the mail
MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
msg.IsBodyHtml = false;
msg.From = new MailAddress(txtEmail.Text, txtName.Text);
msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailTo));
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailCC))
msg.CC.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailCC));
msg.Subject = string.Format(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailSubject, txtSubject.Text);
msg.Body = txtBody.Text;
new SmtpClient().Send(msg);
// show a confirmation message, and reset the fields
lblFeedbackOK.Visible = true;
lblFeedbackKO.Visible = false;
txtName.Text = "";
txtEmail.Text = "";
txtSubject.Text = "";
txtBody.Text = "";
}
catch (Exception)
{
lblFeedbackOK.Visible = false;
lblFeedbackKO.Visible = true;
}
}

Hi James,
How is the Beer house related to this?
Anyway, is my previous example not enough to get you started? You need to set EnableSsl to true. In your case, you create an instance of SmtpClient and call Send in one line, so you need to split that:
SmtpClient myClient = new SmtpClient()
myClient.EnableSsl = true;
myClient.Send(msg);
Cheers and hope this helps,
Imar

"2. If I change it like this:

Yes, the fix is in an earlier post:
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true
Unfortunately, you cannot set this in web.config, so you need to do this programmatically. For .NET triggered e-mail (forgotten password and so on) this won't work, so you'll need to write your own mail sending code for that.
As an alternative, find an ISP / SMTP server that doesn't require SSL.
Cheers,
Imar
