what's wrong? how to send mail via console app?

Code:

---

static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Mail To");
            MailAddress to = new MailAddress(Console.ReadLine());


            Console.WriteLine("Mail From");
            MailAddress from = new MailAddress(Console.ReadLine());


            MailMessage mail = new MailMessage(from, to);


            Console.WriteLine("Subject");
            mail.Subject = Console.ReadLine();


            Console.WriteLine("Your Message");
            mail.Body = Console.ReadLine();


            SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
            smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
            smtp.Port = 587;


            smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(
                "[email protected]", "password");
            smtp.EnableSsl = true;
            Console.WriteLine("Sending email...");
            smtp.Send(mail); //The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated
        }

You need to tell what's wrong. Compile errors, exceptions, crash....?

how does that thing even kind of work?
google how to declare main in C

You need to stop being in such a hurry to post.

Did you not Notice the Question Mark?
Or even how it was phrased to make it a question, and NOT a statement
now I have to ask,
do you even know the difference between a question and a statement and all they entail

furthermore the way it is presented that is still not a valid main for C or C++ . Then I just thought what does Java's look like so I just googled that and well

Quote:

---

public static void main(String [ ] args)
{

---

still it is not valid Java look at the Main vs main in his code, so if it is even Java then he is not even in the proper forum.
either way I don't know why you're getting your panties in a ruffle or what is that term I seen in here assbite asshurt or something or was it buttsore ( definitely a freudian term)


so to end this is I was just a QUESTION and not a Statement nonetheless. .

then I just now just looked and well excuses me this is for C# don't C much of that in here so when I asked that Question not making a statement, even though I was under the impression it was for C but still nonetheless I stayed in the safe zone by asking a Question .. do you understand what a Question is?????<-- that is just a question a simple yes or no question. that is all it is.

So now you know there is C#, and perhaps to look a bit before jumping to conclusions.
Losing your rag every time someone points out something doesn't help your cause either.

it was still a question no matter what ! so that jumping to conclusions does not even apply ... how can a question mis lead you

well may you it can..because my question did mislead you

other wise you'd not have said anything. ,.
ot maybe you just got an issue with people asking questions in here I doono you need help.
it is only a question he is the one that jumped to a conclusion not I
loosing my rag none sense its called setting him straight and being honest. something you see as a fault I suppose.

I'm just being straight-forward and honest with you, but #3 just comes across as you thinking you were on the C board. Because C links are not relevant and misleading on the C# board.

You asking "how does that even work?" There are two ways, that I can think of, that you mean this question. First, you could have asked it out of a genuine desire to know how that works, for yourself. If you did, the C reference page would not help you understand C# programs. It makes it look like you aren't even aware that it is a C# program. Second, you could have asked how it works in the same way someone might ask "how does that even compile?" with the connotation that the code is so bad that compiling as "C" would show many issues with the code. With this interpretation, it is a stupid question, because the code looks compilable to begin with, but also because if you were simply confused by the syntax yourself, you look like you don't know where you are. The C# board.

Therefore, you shouldn't be surprised when people suggest that you slow down next time, and realize that you are on the C# board before replying.

If you did mean the first interpretation, then sorry. You might get an answer eventually, but not by spitting like a viper at everyone like in #6.

cannot anyone see that it is just a harmless question regardless .. I have no idea what is wrong with this world anymore, am I dealing with a bunch of anal retentive people here?

Well, you're blind to the fact that asking questions in the wrong place and time can make you look like a sarcastic ...............

so you're all just looking like anal retentive people and I'm just being sarcastic? :D

O_o

I confess; I don't think "google how to declare main in C" is a question.

have you learned about references yet?

ask question gives reference to what one is thinking bout to give a perspective or this is what is in my brain. to the OP not anyone but the OP .. have not seen him making any qualms on it. nevertheless,

a looker on sees then takes in and analyzes, or just jumps to conclusion then gives advice to not be in a hurry to post.

how long does one have to wait before asking question? is their a law or an international law even on the waiting period before asking a question.? are their forms involved in this? Do you and others think this stupid line of conversion over a question has gone long enough or is it just me?

Stick a fork in it, it's done.
