I have the following code to send an email and I get this error:
[SmtpFailedRecipientException: Mailbox unavailable. The server response was:
<[email protected]> No such user here]. The error is on at last line
below.

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();

MailAddress fromAddress = new MailAddress("(e-mail address removed)",
"POS-eTive Point of Sales.");
// host name of server
smtpClient.Host = "mail.someHost.com";

//Default port will be 25
smtpClient.Port = 25;

//From address will be given as a MailAddress Object
message.From = fromAddress;

// To address collection of MailAddress
message.To.Add(Email.Text);
message.Subject = " auto responder notice.";



// Message body content
message.Body = "some message";

// Send SMTP mail
smtpClient.Send(message);
 
Is the site hosted locally or remotely? It seems you might need to
authenticate with a password for the smtp.
 
Hello Dave,

do u have the right credentials for the SMTP in your web.config?
because as was noted this could lead u to that exception

I assume the e-mail address you are trying to send to doesn't exist. Try
another one which exists for sure.

SmtpFailedRecipientException Class
Represents the exception that is thrown when the SmtpClient is not able to
complete a Send or SendAsync operation to a particular recipient.
