I'm using the exact same from email address that I use in the test function on the host admin. That's why I'm thinking that it's something to do with the way that I'm sending the mail. I've tried the SendMail function and also the

DotNetNuke.Services.Mail.Mail.SendEmail(from, to, subject, body);

function. I was under the impression that if I used the SendMail function, that it automatically pulled the data from the host configuration. However, using this has not worked. I'm now trying to use the SendMail function similar to what was in the post (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Forums/tabid/795/forumid/111/postid/130862/scope/posts/Default.aspx) to see if that will solve the problem. If it does, I'll post my working code for others to see.

OK, I'm going to post the code that I'm using. If anyone can point out what I'm doing wrong, I'd greatly appreciate it!

string from ="my@gmail.address";
string to = "my@gmail.address";
string subject = "Test Subject";
string body = "Test Body";
string SendMethod = "S";

DotNetNuke.Services.Mail.Mail.SendMail(from, to, "", "", DotNetNuke.Services.Mail.MailPriority.Normal,
subject, DotNetNuke.Services.Mail.MailFormat.Html, System.Text.Encoding.Default,
body,
"",
Convert.ToString(PortalSettings.HostSettings["SMTPServer"]),
Convert.ToString(PortalSettings.HostSettings["SMTPAuthentication"]),
Convert.ToString(PortalSettings.HostSettings["SMTPUsername"]),
Convert.ToString(PortalSettings.HostSettings["SMTPPassword"]), true);


I've also tried the following code to no avail:
DotNetNuke.Services.Mail.Mail.SendEmail(from, to, subject, body);

Thanks in advance!

I hate to even post this, but for anyone who runs across this thread, it'll be nice to have a working solution.

Somewhere in the all the iterations to test different usernames/server configurations/etc, the password was overwritten in the host settings. I discovered this after going to the host settings to run another test email, only to discover that the test no longer worked.

Any of the solutions in my previous post will actually send a successful email, once the host settings are correct (and saved). I'm guessing that the true cause to my issues was failing to hit "update" after putting in the correct settings and getting the test to work. Obviously, the easiest function to use is the Mail.SendEmail() function.

I hope others find this helpful. :-)
