Tired of waiting for your online email client to load? Gmail or hotmail/live take to long to load up on the internet? No problem! With this you cen send en email in a matter of seconds! Just run the program etner the information and wa-la!

Instructions:
YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS FILLED IN CORRECTLY OR IT WONT SEND ANYTHING!
You'll need to fill in the following:
Your E-mail
Your Password
If you use hotmail or live type in the third box "smtp.live.com" without quotes and "smtp.gmail.com" withouth quotes.
Next box type in 25 for hotmail/live.com. 587 for gmail.com.
Then type the person's email adress ur emailing
Then the subject
Then the message.

Heres a screenie of what it should look like if you use hotmail/live

You should have an included help-file with all the ports for various mail clients and domains. That way you don't need to have the unprofessional looking descriptions near the boxes. Make sure you have the Help button accessible as well.

Also, you tested this out right?

And lastly, it's spelled as recipient.

Lol is the reason why you didn't input your password because it'll show up?
I suggest you make the textbox a password box so that everything in it will appear as bullets.

Also... how safe is this? o.o

I erased my password so no one would see it >.> no one trusts my app

If you dont believe me than whatever seriously why would I steal anyone's password.

You could always just give out the source code, lol.

And what library does this use? Does .NET have e-mail protocol support 0-o?

You should try implementing a secure account & mail manager (just a simple, basic one) and POP3 manager, just to learn the stuff. The more knowledge, the better :P
