I'm getting the following error message when I try to run my aspx page: Compiler Error Message: BC30390: 'System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Private Overloads Sub New()' is not accessible in this context because it is 'Private'. The code looks like: <%@ Import NameSpace="System.Web.Mail.SMTPMail"%> <%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="WebForm1.aspx.vb" Inherits="WebApplication1.WebForm1"%> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <title>WebForm1</title> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft Visual Studio.NET 7.0"> <meta name="CODE_LANGUAGE" content="Visual Basic 7.0"> <meta name="vs_defaultClientScript" content="JavaScript"> <meta name="vs_targetSchema" content="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5"> </HEAD> <body MS_POSITIONING="GridLayout"> <script runat="server"> Public Sub btnLogin_Click(ByVal sender as Object, ByVal e as System.Eventargs) Dim objSMTP as New System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail() objSMTP.Send(txtEmail.text, txtEmail.text, "Test SMTP Mail", "This is a test!")

Delete the line where you declare objSMTP and then replace objSMTP.Send with SMTPMail.Send TThanks, but that didn't work either. Now its saying I have to delcare SMTP... The message is: Compiler Error Message: BC30451: Name 'SMTPMail' is not declared. I've changed the click event handler to look like: Public Sub btnLogin_Click(ByVal sender as Object, ByVal e as System.Eventargs) 'Dim objSMTP as New System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail() SMTPMail.Send(txtEmail.text, txtEmail.text, "Test SMTP Mail", "This is a test!") End sub BTW. Why can I instantiate a new object as type SMTPMail? Thanks.I believe it is because the smtpMail class is static, therefore all instances of smptmail can use the same instance. What you do need to create is the mailmessage object which is fed to smtpmail. Here is some basic mail code that we use. Imports System.Web.Mail Public Sub SendEmail(eTo,eFrom,eSubject,eBody) Dim smtpMssg AS new MailMessage smtpMssg.From = eFrom smtpMssg.To = eTo smtpMssg.Subject = eSubject smtpMssg.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text smtpMssg.Body = eBody SmtpMail.SmtpServer=ConfigurationSettings.AppSetti ngs("mailserver") SmtpMail.Send(smtpMssg) End Sub T
