E-mail address

Sets the e-mail address from which e-mail messages are sent.

Deliver e-mail to SMTP server

Configures System.Net.Mail to deliver e-mail messages immediately to an SMTP server.

SMTP Server

Defines the unique name of the SMTP server.

Use localhost

Sets the name of the SMTP server to LocalHost. Setting the name to LocalHost means that System.Net.Mail will send e-mail to the SMTP server on the local computer.

Port

Sets the TCP port that System.Net.Mail will use in trying to connect to the target SMTP server. Port 25 is the SMTP standard TCP port and is the default setting and the recommended setting.

Authentication Settings

Specifies the authentication mode and credentials if your SMTP server requires these.

Not required

Requires no user name or password from the user in order to connect to the SMTP server.

Windows

Uses the application identity. Use this option if you are setting up a smart host to relay messages in your network or if you are setting up a server to receive e-mail from internal sites, such as a company intranet.

Specify credentials

Requires a valid user name and password. Credentials are sent as clear text across the network. To specify credentials, click Set. You must enter the valid user name in the User name text box and the valid password in the Password text box. Re-enter the password in the Confirm Password text box and then click OK.

Store e-mail in pickup directory

Configures System.Net.Mail to store e-mail messages in a file location on disk for later delivery by an application such as an ASP.NET application, or by a user, such as an administrator.
