here is my snippet from my config file...
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="server@default.net">
<network host="127.0.0.1"/></smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
and here is the code without referencing the appconfig
Dim mMailMessage As New MailMessage()
'sender e-mail address.
mMailMessage.From = New MailAddress("server@blah.n
et")
'recipient e-mail address.
mMailMessage.To.Add(New MailAddress("blah@blah.com
"))
' Set the subject of the mail message
mMailMessage.Subject = "ALERT"
' Set the body of the mail message
mMailMessage.Body = "<HTML><BODY><B>ALERT! The system did not process the ADS_Blend Job</B></BODY></HTML>"
' Set the format of the mail message body as HTML
mMailMessage.IsBodyHtml = True
' Set the priority of the mail message to normal
mMailMessage.Priority = MailPriority.Normal
' Instantiate a new instance of SmtpClient
Dim mSmtpClient As New SmtpClient()
