System.Net.Mail namespace

one issue though; looks like you are using COM objects, not the .net typed objects.

var message = new MailMessage
{
   from = ...,
   subject = ...,
   body = ...,
   other properties
};
new SmtpClient("server name", port).Send(message);

you can even configure some of the mail settings in the config file. see

Thank you guys for the help. I think I am on the right track my only quetion is how do you convert this to asp.net
I am trying to use a listserv for customer to subscribe. I want to pass the name and domain name.

Mailer.AddRecipient "SEASONAL-LOAD-LIMITS-L", "listserv@xxx.xxxxx.xx.xx
