    Emailing with CWS and Exchange 2007

    Umbraco Version 4.0.2.1 Windows Server 2003  and IIS 6 Exchange 2007

    Using CWS for a site and want to use the exchange server send the emails from contact form & email a friend however having issues with getting this to work when you fillin the form and click submit you get the following error:

    The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated

    Is there something extra i need to be adding to the web.config apart from the standard smtp section or is there something in exchange i should be looking into?

    Has anyone managed to email using an exchange server?

    If you are using umbraco.library.SendMail you have to set the credentials in the web.config like this:

      <system.net>
        <mailSettings>
          <smtp>
            <network host="HOSTNAME" userName="USERNAME" password="PASSWORD" />
          </smtp>
        </mailSettings>
      </system.net>

    Check out the msdn documentation if you need more infos

    And if you are using own code you can set the credentials via 

    System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient sc = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
    sc.Host = "HOSTNAME_OR_IP";
    sc.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
