I'm writing a ASP.NET application used within our company. Now I want to send emails to some users via a email account on our exchange server.
I tried to use System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient, where a proprietary account and password are given to specify the credentials. But the code failed with following exception: "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"
Is that due to Exchange Server policies to prevent spam? How can I get it to work?
