I have purchased a domain with registration , so I have now mail account of my own company , i wrote a function to send an email below is the code for email sending

protected void SendEmail(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    using (MailMessage mm = new MailMessage(txtEmail.Text, txtTo.Text))

{

        mm.Subject = txtSubject.Text;

        mm.Body = txtBody.Text;

        if (fuAttachment.HasFile)

{

            string FileName = Path.GetFileName(fuAttachment.PostedFile.FileName);

            mm.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(fuAttachment.PostedFile.InputStream, FileName));

}

        mm.IsBodyHtml = false;

        SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();

        smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";

        smtp.EnableSsl = true;

        NetworkCredential NetworkCred = new NetworkCredential(txtEmail.Text, txtPassword.Text);

        smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = true;

        smtp.Credentials = NetworkCred;

        smtp.Port = 587;

        smtp.Send(mm);

        ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(), "alert", "alert('Email sent.');", true);

}

}

Now as my email is [email protected] as it is not a gmail account so instead of this line smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; what should i write

You need to change email host server instead of gmail.com. If you don't have that you need to ask where you bought the domain. Once you get that use that one and also you need to ask port no etc..

SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";

You will need to check your settings where you registered your domain. Most likely they provide you with a control panel where you can see the settings you need. Just changing "smtp.gmail.com" to "smtp.planrbme.com.pk" might not be enough. You will have to check whether they use SSL or not, and which port you must use.
