Sending Email in C# using CRM
Hi,
Iam tryig to send email in my code behind using CRM. But whenever i try i am getting "erver could not process teh request" error. I have attached the code here. Iam very new to the CRM. iam getting teh error in the line
SendEmailResponse res = (SendEmailResponse)service
i think that it might be the problem with callerGUId i provide. Is there any particlar GUID i needs to give like administartors GUID. Actually i tried with users GUID.
Please can anyoe help me to overcome with this error ASAP
Thanks

Do you want to give me the code you are using so I can see if I can find anything, as this should work. What has changed from your previous post were it did work ?
ASKER
Actually previously i was working with my intranet. Now i deployed my application in Webserver.
I havent change any thing in the code.
I have attached the method which iam calling in my application for sending the email.
In my local intranet still it works.
Web Server user is also exist in the CRM database.

Is your webserver configured to use and IFD Deployment ?
ASKER
yes
In the web server everything else works other than sending email and downloading attachments.

Hi Pkotian,
Please will you confirm a couple of things for me. Are you using CRM 3.0 or 4.0, where are you trying to create this functionality ? From a Custom ASPX page, from a workflow assembly in CRM 3.0 from a Callout in CRM 4.0 ?

Hi,
Iam Using CRM 3.0. Iam trying this functionality from a Custom ASPX page in my application. That is the login page which is sending mail on click of forgot password.
One more thing i wanted to ask is , i have set the default CRM Customer username, Password and Domain name in webconfig file so that my application uses that as a system user credentials. But iam getting error "Server could not process the request" in local machine as well.
i have set the system credential as below
crm.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredenti
where domainUsername, domainPassword, domainName are set in webconfig.

ok, I am using CRM 4.0 and i am not getting service.CallerIdValue = new CallerId(); service. and above code is not working.
ASKER
thanks for the reply.
I tried with acitivityparty method as you specified. It sends the mail only when email.to and email.from id is mine that is owner GUID which is taken from windows credentials. If I change the email.to to my application login user's GUID it throws the same error as "Server could not process the request".
Please can you help me in this.
Thanks,
