Thanks mr. Rick, I just need to know if it is possible to use gmail or hotmail type emails with this tool. the link only guided me to setup but I just need to know a yes o not answer ! please. This an alternative cause there is another account with a regular custom email that does not work with this tool from a particular hosting place! Thanks Ate. Oscar

Hi, Thanks Mr. Rick I did like this example of gmail but gave me this Error "The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. the server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. learn more at" I did even change the password of my gmail account, what else could be ? Thanks for your patients! Ate. Oscar

You need to follow the code sample. You have to use .NET mode (nMailMode = 0) for SSL to work.

It most definitely works - I do it every day. Please revisit the documentation.
