  Hi,

  I am building a new website for my company. At the moment we are using static website and I would like to convert it all to ASP.NET.

  I have designed a nice bootstrap form, however I am having trouble with the contact us form.

  In my old website I userd asp and the following object:

  Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("Persits.MailSender")

  I tried implementing the following code:

  https://www.codeproject.com/Tips/371417/Send-Mail-Contact-Form-using-ASP-NET-and-Csharp

  However, I don't want to use a real 'from' email like this:

   var smtp = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
      {
          smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
          smtp.Port = 587;
          smtp.EnableSsl = true;
          smtp.DeliveryMethod = System.Net.Mail.SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
          smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromAddress, fromPassword);
          smtp.Timeout = 20000;
      }

  I just want to use the mail address that the viewer filled in the form, just I like I do now:

  Mail.port = "25"
  Mail.From = Request("email") ' From address
  Mail.FromName = Request("first_name") & Request("last_name")' From Name

  Is there a way to use the asp Persits.MailSender object with .net? Or maybe is there another simple solution?

  Thanks

  Hi anooshiravan

  In Following article I will explain how to send email using Gmail SMTP Server in ASP.Net. To send email with Gmail SMTP Server, you will need to use an email address and password of a valid Gmail account and along with that you will need the Gmail SMTP Mail Server settings.
