Connect Method

Connects to the incoming mail server.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub Connect()

[C#]
public void Connect();

Remarks

Connects to the incoming mail server specified by MailServer. You must set User and Password prior to calling Connect. The connection will be maintained until you call Disconnect.

If you wish to connect in SSL you should first set the SSLStartMode property. Note that it is not necessary to explicitly connect to an SMTP server for outgoing mail; a connection will be created and destroyed each time a mail is sent.
