Can you try on port 587 instead? I saw some other posts on internet which said 587 works but 25 does not.

Hi,
I'm trying to send a email with this in C# but it does not work.
Anybody can tell me what is wrong?
Thanks
(it is only a test)
                MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage("bernybon@hotmail.com", "bernybon@hotmail.com");
                mailMessage.Subject = "Your BabyfootClub username and password.";
                mailMessage.Body = "Your username is: " + sUsername + "\r\n";
                mailMessage.Body += "Your password is: " + sPasswrod + "\r\n";

                SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.live.com", 25); // the port used by smtl.live.com is 25 not 587
                smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
                smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
                smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("bernybon@hotmail.com", "mypassword", "www.hotmail.com");
                smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;

                smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);

Hi,
I dont understand. Basically the IP that you get from your provider stays unless you do not disconnect or switch off your router, right?
So, I am not sure if the ISP can change the IP of a client in this way, even if it does, don't you get disconnected ?
Please clarify me if I am wrong.
And by the way I got your site address from the contacts mentioned in the `Making PHP faster on IIS` webcast.

Pradeep.
