Hmmm... Color me skeptical.

How about you start a couple of new projects & feed your mailmessages
more obviously equivalent literals?

I did not write the C# example. A co-worker did and he assures me the to
strings are the same.

Thanks,

Are these bits really equivalent?

<vb>
sTo = "xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx"
mailmsg.To = sTo.Trim
</vb>

<c#>
aMessage.To = uc.m_INIStrings[4];
</c#>

What's the error & on what line does it occur?

If you do a MessageBox.Show(mailmsg.To) do you get expected results?

Hi all,

VS2000

VB.Net

If the sTo string has a numeric character in the domain name I get an
error using VB.Net

Why would C# work and VB.Net fail?

TIA,

Roy

sTo = "xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx"

Dim mailMsg As New MailMessage

With mailMsg

.From = sFrom

.To = sTo.Trim

.Bcc = sBCC

.Cc = sCC

.Subject = sSubject

.Body = sBody

If Not IsNothing(sAttachment) Then

.Attachments.Add(sAttachment)

End If

End With

SmtpMail.Send(mailMsg)

Conversely, using C# I don't get the error. Both apps reference Web.Mail

// send an e-mail to someone that the file already
existed

MailMessage aMessage = new MailMessage();

aMessage.From = "xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxx";

aMessage.To = uc.m_INIStrings[4];

aMessage.Subject = "Data Entry File was not
processed.";

aMessage.Body = "At: " + DateTime.Now + " The
Data Entry File already existed.";

try

{

SmtpMail.Send(aMessage);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

string strerror = "";

strerror = ex.Message;

}

Re: MAilmessage difference between vb.net and c #

The difference in the .To is the C# get the string from an ini file, the VB.Net is passed a string. What was sent in the body is different but should have no bearing on the problem. The C# example has no CC nor BCC. The reason for no CC and no BCC is because we wanted to see if C# would send to a domain with the 4 in it. IT did send.

I have a terrible GUI eye. Thank goodness one of our developers here has a good GUI eye. Is there a service, shop, individual, consultant, company out there I can send screen shots to and they can make recommendations on how to add some eye candy? I would think this would be a valuable service if they are good. Greg Robinson Custom Data Systems, Inc. www.cds-am.net

MAilmessage difference between vb.net and c #

Ok, I found the problem In VB I had this line SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "192.168.30.6" The C# version did not. When I dropped the statement from VB it, too, worked. Funny thing is, it had been working with that statement for 2 months, until yesterday. Anyway, that is the solution if anyone has a similar problem. Thanks, Roy Roy Forkner MIS 972-243-7443 Ext 5171
