 Hi,

I am making a form in asp.net 3.5 which will send an email to the recipient

Initially I was using system.web.mail

as it is obvious whenever you send an email to some recipient a display name appears instead

of theemail id of the sender

consider:

mail_sender=mail@gmail.com

display_name="my name"

in my case instead of the display_name "mail" the initial portion of the sender's email id is coming

but it is desired that "my name" should appear in the recipient's inbox.

due to this I had to switch to system.net.mail

but there also same problem occurs.

I have tried googling on this issue too, but still no help.

Any help shall be appreciated !

Thanks
Pankaj

Here is Better Code to Send mail using ASp.net 

 protected void btnSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
client.Port = 587;
client.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
client.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(txtemail.Text ,txtpass.Text );
client.EnableSsl = true;
try
{
MailAddress SendTo = new MailAddress(txtTo.Text);
MailAddress SendFrom = new MailAddress(txtFrom.Text);
message = new MailMessage(SendFrom, SendTo);
message.Body = txtMessage.Text;
message.Subject = txtSub.Text;
client.Send(message);
txtStatus.Text = "Your email has been sent";
Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock("Thanks!", "<script>alert('Thanks! for using this tool.')</script>");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
txtStatus.Text = ex.ToString();
}
}
}
