无法连接到远程服务器，

Question

Simply, I want to send an email in my mvc aspnet application. my action method below :

 SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1");
 NetworkCredential cred = new NetworkCredential("my mail address", "my password");
 mailClient.Credentials = cred;
 MailMessage contact = new MailMessage();
 contact.From = new MailAddress("my mail address");
 contact.Subject = "Subject";
 contact.IsBodyHtml = true;
 contact.Body = "Body";
 mailClient.EnableSsl = true;
 contact.To.Add("someone's mail address");
 mailClient.Send(contact);

But when I try this I got an error like that :

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException : {"Failure sending mail."}

Inner Exception : {"Unable to connect to the remote server"}

I searched similar solutions but they say that You needed to set the credentials but I'm sure that I set the credentials correctly. Also Windows Firewall is turned off. Thanks in advance.

Sorry to say it, but your Exceptions are already very obvious!

It seems like u try it on a non SMTP server. Set one up and it should work then.

=> System.Net.Mail.SmtpException : {"Failure sending mail."}

Else just check your connection/ premission to the server.

=> Inner Exception : {"Unable to connect to the remote server"}
