No help I'm afraid but just letting you know I've had exactly the same problem. Have you checked hotmail's spam folder?

Yes i have checked the spam but no mail.

I can only presume hotmail doesn't like the domain the mail is coming from. When this happened to me mail was recieved my googlemail, yahoo mail etc just not hotmail.

When i moved to the deployment server though everyone was ok.

If you put the Send() in the Try block, check for the exception message. It should be something like "Could not access CDO.Message object". It happens usually if you use Localhost as your host.

You would have to add the Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library reference. Check post number 7 in this thread - MSDN Forums.

EDIT: Forgot to add, this problem is quite persistent in VS 2003, and I have never succeeded in sending mail to myself (regardless of hotmail) using the same method you have posted.

Also check this link - www.systemwebmail.com

but this wont work on all the windows.if the server doesnot have windows2000 then this solution wont work

I had the same problem. I cant remember the exact error, but it was something to the effect of a relay, which hotmail blocks because of spam.

i've had this problem before, and i managed to solve it by adding in some specific e-mail headers.
E-mail sent without these headers was being sent straight to my hotmail spam box.

here is some sample code (mail server and e-mail addresses modified) that i used to send an email to hotmail using mono/.net 1.1:

PHP Code:

---

using System;
using System.Web.Mail;

public class test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        try
        {
            MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
            msg.To = "someone <[email protected]>";
            msg.From = "test <[email protected]>";
            msg.Subject = "test email";
            msg.Body = "test email";
            msg.Headers.Add("Reply-To", "reply-to-address");
            msg.Headers.Add("MIME-Version", "1.0");
            msg.Headers.Add("X-Priority", "3 (Normal)");
            msg.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "text/plain;charset=iso-8859-1");
            msg.Headers.Add("Content=Transfer-Encoding", "8bit");
            SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.server";
            SmtpMail.Send(msg);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        }
    }
}
