I'm trying to using this very simple control. This is supposed to work all behind the scenes with the help of mail setting in web.config.
This is not working for me and I continue to get an annoying error message:
Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: <XX@aol.com> No such user here
Description:
An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Net.Mail.SmtpFailedRecipientException: Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: <XX@aol.com> No such user here
This message implies that the XX.aol.com is the FROM address. At least to me it does. That is the TO address.I have googled all over for this and I see others have had the same issues. I submitted a ticket to my webhost about
it. I had defaultcredentials ="false" but it didn't make any difference. I get the same message about the email address.
