I have the same problem. I send the message with SMTP server that I have at work, but when I try to do the same using the SMTP server of my Web e-mail provider I am getting message that the user is not Authenticated.
In order to send email, you must set your email software to use authentication when connecting to
the outgoing mail server.
I am using SystemWeb.dll and setting the mail object like

Dim oMail As MailMessage
oMail = New MailMessage()

But I cannot find the property of this object to send the name and pwd.

Did somebody solved this problem?

I use my own mail server to send out everything.

That is probably the best way to go, because then you can have total control over the funtionality.

I am presently using Visnetic Mailserver from Deerfield.com. It is the most stable mail server I have tried and I spent a great deal of time searching for one.

The MS SMTP server should work fine.

The SmtpMail class should automatically send to the local server. if you need to specifiy the server set the SmtpMail.SmtpServer property to 127.0.0.1.

This is the code I'm using .It seems everything need is there but

Private Function EmailCust()
        Dim myMessage As New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage()
        Dim myMailServer As System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail
 
        myMessage.To = TextBox1.Text
        myMessage.From = TextBox2.Text
        myMessage.Subject = TextBox3.Text
 
        myMessage.Body = TextBox4.Text
 
' myMailServer.SmtpServer = "www.digitalims.net"
 
        myMailServer.SmtpServer = "127.0.0.1"
 
        Try
            'the error occures here 
            myMailServer.Send(myMessage)
        Catch x As Exception
            MsgBox(x.Message)
        End Try
 
        myMessage = Nothing
    End Function
 
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object _ 
, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        EmailCust()
    End Sub

Did you set MS SMTP virtual server? You have to go to the properties and add 127.0.0.1 to the Connection and Relay
