Error sending Mail

Hi Imar. I bought your book and I think it's great. I've developed some projects and I really apreciate your work! Thanks!

I'm working in this project, but I have a little problem with the Contact Page.

My code in web.config as follows:

Code:

.
.
.
<appSettings>
    <add key="FromAddress" value="[email protected]" />
    <add key="FromName" value="Usuario Recicloo" />
    <add key="ToAddress" value="[email protected]" />
    <add key="ToName" value="Administrador Recicloo" />
    <add key="SendMailOnError" value="false" />
</appSettings>
.
.
.
<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="rodagulus &lt;[email protected]&gt;">
        <network host="smtp.prodigy.net.mx"/>
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
  </system.net>

In VWD works fine but in the page on the internet i get a friendly error when I "send" the message. I don't know where is that error :'(

Thanks again!!

Hi there,

To see the real error, turn off custom error messages in the web.config, and try again. Then you can see what exactly is going wrong.

My guess is that a) your mail server cannot be reached or b) you need to supply additional data such as a username/password, port number and ssl settings. Just a guess though ;-)

Cheers,

Imar
