You're not specifying an smtp server.

If you don't do that, the default smtpserver is localhost.

When I use "localhost" for an smtp server, mail is never sent.

When I specify an smtp server by name, mail gets sent.

Are you using your own smtp server ?

Or are you specifying an smtp server to which
you have a right to access, or a smart host ?

The format to specify your smtp server is :

SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.whatever.com"
( any valid mail server name )

i am specifying the mail server now in the same code as
per mentioned but i am still unable to send any mail.
What could be the issue?

Post your complete code
( without your smtp server name )
and I'll check it out locally.

First question is, is the mail appearing in your SMTP queue?

Where do you assign the SmtpServer to use for sending the email?
