Colin,



	SnmtpMail is an abstract class (or whatever this concept is

being called now in .NET). You can't instantiate that class. You don't

need to, though. All you need to do is to access its static properties

and methods like this:



	SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com"



	Then, in order to send mail you just instantiate a MailMessage

classes as in:



	Dim MailMessage MyEmail = new MailMessage



	MyEmail.From = "nguyentriminh@y..."

	MyEmail.To = "aspx@p..."

	MyEmail.Subject = "Hello World"

	MyEmail.Body = "I hope it works"

	

	SmtpMail.Send MyEmail 



Hope it helps,

Minh.

Thank you Minh It worked perfectly. You are a legend :-)



When you look at the error message, in hind-sight, it's still very obscure.
