sending emails via site.

[Mr. X.]

Hello,

What may be the problem of sending email via my site.

I use something like :
(VB - on aspx page)

dim mail as new MailMessage
mail.from = (e-mail address removed) (this email is correct and configured on the
site).
mail.to = (e-mail address removed) (any correct email).
mail.body = "..."

mail.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1255)
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.myserver.com"
SmtpMail.Send(mail)
....
Then I get the message :
503 This mail server requires authentication ...


Thanks

....
also before sending I did :
mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html
....
the rest of code is the same.

Thanks

Thanks,
I will check that out.

Still I don't understand why microsoft itself on its web site,
doesn't show all of the members of smtpMail (there is no clue for
NetorkCredentails,
even from and to are not known members).
see :

Thanks
