There's a code snippet to create and send an e-mail, but I need to send it
via a hosted server at an ISP and the outbound mail server requires
authentication (username and password). Whats the code to authenticate when
using framework v.2 and the system.net.mail namespace?

Any help greatly apprecoated.

Bob,
For System.Net.Mail messages I normally look at:

To answer your question see:
