I am trying to do a simple app that will send email. The constructor for SmtpClient asks for smtp Server Name. How do i know what’s the name of my machine’s smtp server (do I have one ?). I have IIS installed.

go to Control Panel \ Administrative Tools \ Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
the view depends on IIS version, but you will definitely see word SMTP. right click on that item and start it. pass “127.0.0.1” to constructor.
