Why do I get “'property cannot be assigned” when sending an SMTP email?

Question

I can\'t understand why this code is not working. I get an error saying property can not be assigned

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
SmtpClient client          


        

Answer 1

If you want to have your email and password not appear in your code and want your company email client server to use your windows credentials use below.

client.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
