Hi there,

I am using .net Framework 1.1. I am trying to send email using vb.net(ASP.net). Using the web.mail namespace, which sends the mail fine. The problem is even though the mail gets sent, I get an error "Thread was being aborted" which means if I try email in a try...catch statement some of my code after the email code does not execute.

What is causing this error? I've tried everywhere and can't seem to find the answer, please help!

Copy of code
Try
'This works fine
objEmail = New MailMessage
            objEmail.To = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("adminEMail")
            objEmail.Priority = MailPriority.Normal
            objEmail.Subject = Subject
            objEmail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html
            objEmail.Body = Message
        objEmail.From = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("adminEMail")
        SmtpMail.SmtpServer = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("eMailServer")
        SmtpMail.Send(objEmail)

'Exception gets thrown when try to send mail
'Any code I put here will not execute because of exception being thrown

Catch ex1 as exception
'This is where I catch the "Thread was...." error
end try

Can you please not post the same message more than once? You message will be read anyway.

Everyone is unique, except for me.

Check the SmtpServer you are accessing, also try with the Send method i.e. overloaded where you send the mail directly instead of creating a new mail object.
