Well Philip... 
There is no problem with the hotmail, but check if u have internet access
while runing the code... Even i had the same problem, but while there was
internet i got no problem, but the problem i faced was i received no mail...
Hope we have to configure Exchange Server in our system  fot the Interop
Services to work. Lets see if some one has a work-arouund....

But i slved by using SQL Stored Procedure called
'sp_sendmail(parameters....)'
This will send mail... 
Keep me posted if u have any issues......

Subject: [aspx_professional] Relaying Error to Hotmail Addresses


Hi all

I get the following error message when sending e-mail via ASP.NET to a
hotmail address, 
(using System.Web.Mail)

'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004020F):
The server rejected one or more recipient addresses. The server response
was: 550 Relaying is prohibited '

I think it's to do with Hotmail's spamming system and may also concern how
the header in the e-mail is sent.

Has anyone else experienced this and come up with a work-around?

Phil
