  • Getting SMTP to Work with GoDaddy

    03-18-2006, 3:11 PM
    My host is GoDaddy and I have the entire PWS Kit working except for the email.  I have put all of the appropriate smtp settings in the web.config and I'm still having no luck.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

     <system.net>
      <mailSettings>
       <smtp from="Admin@MyWebsite.com">
        <network host="smtpout.secureserver.net" password="MyPassword"
         port="3535" userName="MyUserName" />
       </smtp>
      </mailSettings>
     </system.net>

    Best Regards,
    Chris

    Is an exception being raised when it tries to send email? If so, post the exception.

    Have you checked your spam folder or tried another email address?

    I am trying to get my personal web page starter kit working with GoDaddy and I am having the dickins of a time to set up the the web.config page BOTH on server at godaddy and my development server. Would you take sometime to share what you did to get it to work, I am stuck in a ditch.

     

    Thanks for your help

    I am on godaddy and this works for me.

     <system.net>
        <mailSettings>
          <smtp from="noreply@noreply.net">
            <network host="smtpout.secureserver.net" password="<password>" port="25" userName="noreply@domain.net"/>
          </smtp>
        </mailSettings>
      </system.net>

     Remember you have to go into the control panel and create an email user or it will not work.

    I just wanted to let you guys know that this was a big help...I just moved my sites over to GoDaddy, and I've been struggling today trying to use network credentials, etc. with the SMTP client and kept getting the invalid domain msesage. So I came here and voila! Problem solved. You know, you tend to think you're the only one who's ever seen the problem, then a 2-minute search on a forum like this reveals that someone's already solved the issue months ago.

    THANKS!

    I just struggled through the various permutations found here and there for this to work on GoDaddy and found this to work:

    1     <system.net>
2      <mailSettings>
3       <smtp from="xxxx@yyyy.org">
4        <network host="relay-hosting.secureserver.net"/>
5       </smtp>
6      </mailSettings>
7     </system.net>

    (I have changed the email to protect the account, but it *IS* an established Forwarding email account on the hosting service, although I'm not sure that matters.)
