Im trying to make an email form in my website (its a local host for now),
When I run my code, and press on “send”, its throwing me this exception :

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: ??? ?????? “SendUsing”
???? ?÷?.

what could be the problem?

this is my code :

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Mail" %>

<script language="c#" runat="server">
    protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();

        msg.To = "[e-mail]";

        msg.From = EmailTxt.Text;

        msg.Subject = "Fun With Daniel Email: from" + UsernameTxt.Text;

        msg.Body = MessegeBox.Text;
        msg.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text;
        ErrorMessege.Text = "Sending..";


        System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(msg);

        ErrorMessege.Text = "The Email Sent successfully!";



    }

</script>

System.Web.Mail requires CDONTs and CDOSYS, so that’s the first thing you’ll have to look at in this case. See this site for solutions to common problems.

The fact that there’s a whole site dedicated to problems with this namespace should tell you that you’re better off using System.Net.Mail, which is a native SMTP implementation and does not rely on COM components. Unless you’re using .NET 1.x, you should switch to it if at all possible.
