Hello Gurus,
I'm trying to study some of the code from this site about sending email and getting email.My problem is i don't know my SMTP server and POP mail server because I'm using the free MSN internet provider which was bundled to the computer that I purchased and I tried to search in MSN to look for the SMTP server. My question is, is there a to detect that SMTP server and put it in the Textbox of my application. I have also Microsoft outlook in my computer.

Thank you very in advance.

Hi

See SMTP and POP3 server are mail servers, with which one can send and receive E-mails. And this servers are not open to public. AS for exampe some organization have these servers, some like email( Internet) service providers, Educational organizations, companies etc, You should be a registered User of such servers with any organization,
I think you should consult your Internet Service porvider if he has his facility which could help you, previously some E-mail portal like, Hotmail used to provide this service free of cost but now they have stopped doing so,

So please check with IP provider.
