Hi guys,

Pls i am newbie to asp.net website and i am building a page in my website called contact us.

i want to create a simple contact us form which will send the messages in the content of the form to my email.

i have tried a few times but it doesnt work.

I will be grateful if anybody can help me out.

thanks in advance.

I've always used this class.. always worked like a charm.. and very easy to implement:

using System;
    using System.Web.Mail;
    using System.Collections;

    namespace Service.Classes
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Summary description for Email.
        /// </summary>
        public class Email : IDisposable
        {

            #region –DECLARATIONS–

                private string strSMTP = string.Empty;
                private string strFrom = string.Empty;

                MailMessage mail;

            #endregion

            #region –PROPERTIES–

                public string SMTP
                {
                    get
                    {
                        return strSMTP;
                    }
                    set
                    {
                        strSMTP = value;
                    }
                }    

                public string From
                {
                    get
                    {
                        return strFrom;
                    }
                    set
                    {
