I don't have a hotmail account to test it on.


To send a mail message from a windows forms account, do something like this.

VB Code:
  1. 'Create the mail message object and set its properties.
  2. Dim theMail As New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
  3. theMail.To = "[email protected]"
  4. theMail.From = "[email protected]"
  5. theMail.Body = "Whatever text you want."
  6. theMail.Subject = "My subject"
  7.  
  8. 'Set up the SMTP server to use to send the message.
  9. System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.yourmailserverdomain.com"
  10.  
  11. 'Send the mail.
  12. System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(theMail)
