Sending Email problem (.NET 2.0)

Hello folks!

I'm trying to send email using the new classes of .NET 2.0, with the following code:

MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
msg.To.Add("bribeiro@certisign.com.br");
msg.From = new MailAddress("bribeiro@certisign.com.br", "Bruno Ribeiro", Encoding.UTF8);
msg.Subject = "Teste de envio de emails usando .NET 2.0";
msg.SubjectEncoding = Encoding.UTF8;
msg.Body = "Este e o corpo da mensagem.";
msg.BodyEncoding = Encoding.UTF8;
msg.IsBodyHtml = false;

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("bribeiro@certisign.com.br", "xxx");
client.Port = 587;
client.Host = "smtp.certisign.com.br";
client.EnableSsl = true;

client.Send(msg);

Unfortunatelly I got a "Time out" exception. The System.Net tracing log is the following:

System.Net Information: 0 : [3260] Associating MailMessage#39785641 with Message#45523402

Any ideas

Hello Mariya!

I tried to increase the timeout to 500000 (500 seconds). Same error :(

Hello Marc!

Yes, I can connect via telnet, using the port 587.

By the way, I can connect using CDO classes, the problem just happens with this new .NET classes.

Thanks!
Roinka
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Version 8.0.50727.42 (RTM.050727-4200) and Microsoft.NET Framework Version 2.0.50727.

Thanks!

Any firewalls, antivirus/antispyware blocking the port

Another thing: is this the complete log If not see the SSL certificates If not then you haven't been able to establish the SSL connection successfully. You'll need to use the CertificateValidationCallback and check for errors

I tried "SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3" but nothing has change.

I was testing using Etheral software, for inspect the network packages. It is strange, cause nothing goes out from my IP address to the SMTP server.

Sorry, I had a VPN software running on my workstation. I have turn off this, and got the following Ethereal log:

Source / Destination / Protocol / Info

192.168.11.241 / 192.168.5.30 / DNS / Standard query A smtp.certisign.com.br

192.168.11.241 ==> my workstation

192.168.5.30 ==> DNS server

200.225.81.134 ==> smtp.certisign.com.br (my SMTP server).

Thanks!

Hello Mariya.

I changed my code this way:

static private void SendMailWithDotNet20()
{
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = new RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(RemoteServerCertificateValidationCallback);

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.certisign.com.br", 587);
client.EnableSsl = true;

MailAddress from = new MailAddress("bribeiro@certisign.com.br", "Bruno de Paula Ribeiro");
MailAddress to = new MailAddress("bribeiro@certisign.com.br", "Bruno de Paula Ribeiro");
MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to);

message.Body = "This is a test e-mail message.";
message.Subject = "Test email with SSL and Credentials";

NetworkCredential myCreds = new NetworkCredential("bribeiro@certisign.com.br", "xxx", "");

client.Credentials = myCreds;

try
{
client.Send(message);
}

catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("Exception is:" + ex.ToString());
}

Console.WriteLine("Goodbye.");
Console.ReadLine();
}

public static bool RemoteServerCertificateValidationCallback(Object sender, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors)
{
Console.WriteLine("Remote Server Cert validation callback called");
Console.WriteLine(sslPolicyErrors);
return sslPolicyErrors == SslPolicyErrors.None;
}
}

But the call back is never called. And the log remains the same.

I have antivirus and firewalls here, but I supose this is opened, cause my Outlook works well. I also can send emails using CDO classes.

Thanks!

There should at least be some RST or ACP commands that are sent out.

Do you have the RTM version of the framework We had a bug with SMTP in Beta2. Here is the thread on this:

This is an example of what should be in the log if the negotiation succeeds.

[Subject]
CN=smtp.gmail.com, O=Google Inc, L=Mountain View, S=California, C=US
Simple Name: smtp.gmail.com
DNS Name: smtp.gmail.com

[Issuer]
E=premium-server@thawte.com, CN=Thawte Premium Server CA, OU=Certification Services Division, O=Thawte Consulting cc, L=Cape Town, S=Western Cape, C=ZA
Simple Name: Thawte Premium Server CA
Email Name: premium-server@thawte.com
DNS Name: Thawte Premium Server CA

If you don't have the server certificates the negotiation hasn't succeeded and you have nothing to validate in the callback. Try this:

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;

The obvious question would be. Are you able to connect to the same SMTP server
Tryt connecting via telnet onthe same computer
STart -> run -> cmd.exe
telnet smtp.certisign.com.br 25

And see if you can connect. Also if you're savvy then try to send an email message via telnet to see if it works.

Hope this helps.

Mariya.

The address "smtp.certisign.com.br" is only reachable from inside the company network.

If there is any test I can do using this address, please let me know.

Thanks!

Did you try increasing the timeout The default value is 100,000 (100 seconds).

I'll investigate if there is a problem with the international chars and let you know later today. Other than that I am not able to telnet to your SMTP server at all.
