it been a while since i looked at VB6. but where do you confure the mail server ? i would start looking there as i cant see this info in the code provided

What is the point of answering the OP in such a fashion ? Do you honestly think that your answer is going to help the OP, or CodeProject for that matter, with your reply, seriously. Some people have the unenviable task of maintaining legacy apps written in out of date languages. This has nothing to do with their skill as a programmer, or their value as a Code Project member, just a basic fact of life. The OP asked a genuine question (to which you obviously have no knowledge of the language he is using or the methods that he is trying to use ), he also showed us his code he working on, and explained his problem in terms anyone could understand. I realise that you are an accountant, and not a programmer, but if you go through your answers that you are providing on this forum, I feel that maybe until Code Project opens up an accounting Forum, you should stick to the lounge where your contributions are much more appreciated. I realise you are one of the more popular memebers here, and that I will probably be blazed by Liquid Nitrogen for even daring to express my opinion, but I really don't care. It is answers like this that are pushing me away from this Site, and it is unnecessary.

If the OP goes and searches google / CP for the answer it has helped him.

True, but DD asked why he was using VB6. In my opinion a valid question. If the OP responds with 'it's a legacy program' then we can move on. But if he responds with 'it's the only thing I know for this new program' we can tell him not to use it and spend some time learning .NET since VB6 isn't supported anymore.

My supply of liquid Nitrogen has run out so... ;P . Seriously tho I don't think your gonna get flamed for just expressing your opinion. As to being pushed away from this site, why? If the answer(s) you get don't apply or answer the question ask for more explanation. If it was insulting vote appropriately (also if not insulting) If the answer is truly so bad that you feel personally attacked go to 'site bugs / suggestions' and ask Chris to have a look at it.

I think you have over reacted to Dave's post as his points are valid. I also do think you are right in what you have said and Dave could have phrased him point better. Yes, VB6 is effectively obsolete, and has been since the release of VB.NET in 2002. "I'm coding for a legacy VB6 system", is not necessarily a valid excuse for coding in VB6. If I was adding a new module to a legacy VB6 project, I would write the new module in .NET and make it COM visible, especially where the .NET functionality, for the task required, is far better than that of VB.6, which in the case of email, it is. At the end of the day, as a programmer/developer, the language you should use is that that best fits the project requirements.

Actually it is an ongoing problem with Indian Based members. I would estimate (fairly accurately and conservatively) that most (90%) questions that require VB6 as a solution are generated from our Indian brethren. I have a theory about that. I think that Indian schools/colleges only have vb6 software. For some reason (probably financial), they have not moved on to VB.NET, and thus they are teaching VB6. This is evident in the afternoons (London Time) when the 'kids' are CPing their homework. (Even more so when end of term projects have to be handed in). So my moan about VB6 is valid, perhaps the Indian Education authorities ought to use some of the Many Billions of Pounds that Britain gives them every year to upgrade the teaching software rather than do Space Launches. As for my bitching about google, it too is a valid point. Before I ask for help here I have googled and attempted, and for such topics as Mailing, I googled and found several million sites dedicated to the problem. Why you think I was being difficult I do not know. As for you assertation about legacy code, rubbish! Additional requirements can still be written in VB.Net and applied to old code. And if a module needs to be rewritten, then rewrite, the skeleton is there in VB6, so it is only rejigging rather than a 'From Scratch'. Thanks for keeping me on my toes though.

I can understand where the sentiment is coming from; nearly every VB6-question has two or three answers stating that one should "move on", whilst the programmer rarely has a choice in the language being used.

It's no longer actively supported by Microsoft. The community however, is a somewhat different beast. I'd even support 16-bit Delphi apps if required :)

True, but it doesn't hurt to ask why he is using VB6, like I said if the answer is, it's the only thing I know for this new program, then we can tell him to move on. I understand supporting legacy program's all to well (have one left that I haven't converted yet so ...) but new program's shouldn't be written in vb6

That would be on the assumption that there's an option. He might have the time to learn something new, or perhaps one of the managers doesn't like the idea of a .NET framework on their clients.
