The code I currently have is:
public void SendEmail(string to, string cc, string bcc, string subject, string body, string attachmentPath = "", System.Net.Mail.MailPriority emailPriority = MailPriority.Normal, BodyType bodyType = BodyType.HTML)
{
try
{
var client = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
{
client.Host = "smtp-mail.outlook.com";
client.Port = 587;
client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
client.EnableSsl = true;
client.DeliveryMethod = System.Net.Mail.SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[my company email]", "[my password]");
client.Timeout = 600000;
}
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage("[insert my email here]", to);
mail.Subject = subject;
mail.Body = body;
client.Send(mail);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
The email address I'm trying to send to is hosted on Office 365's Outlook. We might have to change the specific address later, but they'd likely be configured the same.
However, whenever I try to run the client.Send(mail);
command, I receive the same error. The full text of the error is:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.57 SMTP; Client was not authenticated to send anonymous mail during MAIL FROM
I've tried a few different things, like switching the port between 25 and 587, changing the host to Office365's, or toggling UseDefaultCredentials
and EnableSssl
to true or false. But I always see the same error. Is there something else I'm missing?
