Sending Email Issue

Discussion in 'Email' started by Goutham, Dec 3, 2013.

  1. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 74.125.29.121:587

    i am getting the above error when tried to send email from a page hosted on Winhost .

    My code :
    Dim SmtpMail As New SmtpClient
    Dim basicAuthenticationInfo As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "ifmadelaware")
    SmtpMail.Host = "mail.ifmadelaware.org"
    SmtpMail.UseDefaultCredentials = False
    SmtpMail.Credentials = basicAuthenticationInfo
    SmtpMail.Send(MailMsg)
    the maiml used to work fine before i am not sure what happened. can you look in to this ASAP.


    Thank You

    You removed the mail.ifmadelaware.org DNS A record and made it a CNAME record that points to ghs.google.com (i.e. resolves to a different IP now). If you still want to send out email using Winhost's email servers from your application, change the SMTP host in your script from mail.ifmadelaware.org to m06.internetmailserver.net.
