hi,

I have 2 questions:

1. how to send an email

i have purchased MailBee.net Objects, and i am trying to use it to send email.

here is my code:
Imap.LicenseKey = str_key;
Imap imap;
imap = new Imap();
imap.Connect(str_imapSrvr);
             // log in
imap.Login(str_acct, str_pwd, AuthenticationMethods.Regular);

MailBee.SmtpMail.Smtp mailer = new Smtp();
             mailer.From.Email = fromEmail;
             mailer.To.Add("myemai@gmail.com");
             mailer.Subject = "Test";
             mailer.BodyHtmlText = "Test body";
             mailer.Send();

and THE OUTPUT:

Smtp component not licensed. LicenseKey is invalid. See documentation on LicenseKey property of the component for more information.

Smtp component is not included in MailBee.net objects? how do i use the MailBee.net objects to send email?

2. If i have uploaded a message to "send" folder successfuly by using imap.UploadMessage(msg, "Sent", MessageFlagSet.SystemFlagsToString(SystemMessageFlags.Seen), DateTime.Today)

is there an easier way to send this message?

Thanks

Please advice

MailBee.NET SMTP Component is a part of MailBee.NET Objects bundle. You get the error because SMTP component is not licensed in your code. You should use the following code:

Code:

MailBee.SmtpMail.Smtp.LicenseKey = str_key;

MailBee.SmtpMail.Smtp mailer = new Smtp();

mailer.From.Email = fromEmail;

mailer.To.Add("myemai@gmail.com");

mailer.Subject = "Test";

mailer.BodyHtmlText = "Test body";

mailer.Send();

The first part of the code (IMAP) doesn't relate to sending through SMTP.

Please note, the code you use sends the message directly to Gmail without a relay SMTP server. This requires MX record assigned to the server/workstation sending is performed from, otherwise, Gmail would reject your messages.

This is a typical approach. If sending to recipients' SMTP servers directly (requires MX record assigned) is your choice, you may send message in a single line of code via Smtp.QuickSend method.

However, we recommend sending through a relay SMTP server. Moreover, because your application uploads sent messages to Sent folder of an IMAP server, it makes sense to send messages through SMTP service of the same mail server the IMAP service you use is a part of.

To send messages through the relay SMTP server, you should implement a code similar to:

Code:

MailBee.SmtpMail.Smtp.LicenseKey = str_key;

MailBee.SmtpMail.Smtp mailer = new Smtp();

mailer.SmtpServers.Add("mail.domain.com", "jdoe", "secret");

mailer.From.Email = fromEmail;

mailer.To.Add("myemai@gmail.com");

mailer.Subject = "Test";

mailer.BodyHtmlText = "Test body";

mailer.Send();

You should change "mail.domain.com", "jdoe", "secret" with your SMTP server address, username and password of an e-mail account there. Most probably, these are the same values you use to connect to your IMAP server.

Best regards,
Andrew

If no exception is thrown during sending, this means SMTP server successfully accepted the message.
