hi there. very good video indeed. very helpful. i also have a question. in the program i created i put two more text boxes . one for Bcc and one for Cc. the problem i have is that when i don't want to have multiple receivers, in other words when i do not use the Bcc and Cc text boxes, the program doesn't work. is there a way to make the input in any of the text boxes optional? not only for the bcc and the cc but also ie for the text or the subject text boxes. thank you

Im new to programming. But following your code. How would I program an attachment. For example, I type everything in the form and but I have an additional button that attaches a file to the email. How would I code that button and when the email is sent will it capture the attachment? Great Video. Very instructive for a beginner like me.

Yes, I know the default port which every country uses but for security reasons my country has changed the default port from 25 to 587. I realised that when i made a win app. and i used the port 25 and not worked. I asked my adsl service provider and they told me that port 25 is disabled for secure reasons.

@QuackWare Actually it's about the same thing. GUI and Gooey. Takes the same amount of time unless someone is really slow in the head. Not saying you are, your problem is probably laziness. Then again who can blame you, we live in a society that applaudes it. Anyway good vid.

@TDOffendo Your an idiot... he said he didn't have an smtp server he can use so he can't show you it working because you need to have access to an SMTP server to send the mail. And what did you do wrong? do you have an SMTP server? if not theres your problem.

Niky Nikolov commented on 13 Nov 2011

I think it's an OK tutorial for what it does, but it's NOT a Client tutorial. This is just basic usage of the Net.Mail assembly. In my opinion a "client" means more than a form to send mail with. Anyway it's a good tut but incorrect title. No disrespect!

Matt Crunk commented on 24 Oct 2009

Odd question, could you, using C#, make an e-mail client which could also read your mailbox, and display the content... I hate logging into my mail, and want to know if there is a way for me to make a program which will help me out with that... thanks :D

Yusuf Okutucu commented on 04 Mar 2011

hmm i followed this tut couple times and yet still its going wrong somewhere when trying to debug. It says: "ArgumentException was unhandled" and then goes to the part this.label1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.label1_Click); of // // label1 //

TDOffendo commented on 04 Jun 2011

@batfink161 I think you're more of an Idiot. I didn't hear him say he didn't have an SMTP server, until he commented back. If you want to have a go at me, do it at the time. Not almost a year later. Besides, I fixed it like a day or 2 after. Prick.

I feel a lot has been omitted and this is too high level. How did you make the GUI/form/emailwindow mockup? Why specifically does System.net need to be imported from? etc. On the pro side, you have a clear voice and the video quality is good.

@QuackWare I myself and lots of people i know say it gooey because its easier to say. People need to stop being so critical someitmes. There is a time for being criticil and there is a time to not be....like here.

For make it work, Change the code like this, SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient(); smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; smtp.Credentials = newNetworkCredential("[email protected]","password"); smtp.EnableSsl = true;

aerozg commented on 14 May 2011

Nice tutorial! I'm trying to write a small mail client like this one, which would allow me to send an attachment only to the TO: recepient, omitting the attachment from the CC and/or BCC recipients.

lxXTaCoXxl commented on 18 May 2011

@QuackWare Right? LOL Besides, if you have a website you have a mailing server. So any smart kid can use it. :D Thanks for clearing up my error with the smtp server. That was my only error.

FuriogamingVideos commented on 16 Nov 2010

This is working like a charm! You dont really need a SMTP server but you do need some sort of mailling server. If you got a website you can use mail.yourwebsite , port 25.. its easy!

Luke Berry commented on 19 Feb 2011

@monkeyjej007 actually, according to Wikipedia. : In computing a graphical user interface (GUI, sometimes pronounced gooey) So, he's right in saying it the way he is.

johnlerytheman commented on 11 Dec 2009

just use the default name textBox1 or 2....etc and dont put the declaration of those textboxes on the program itself if it isnt being used.such as a label

George Lavman commented on 20 Jan 2013
