Okay, I'm making some private software and I need the ip address and host name of the computers that run my software, this is because I don't want more people than I have allowed using my software.
This is my current code:
Lets just presume email and password are variables so that you don't see my email and password.
I've followed lots of steps to get the SMTP information, but it would be great if anyone else could confirm that I have them correct? (I'm @live.co.uk). The thing is that the above code takes FOREVER to execute, about 5 minutes, also I'm not receiving the emails. So is there anything wrong with my code? (mail to and mail from are the same). I don't get why it takes so long to execute and why I don't receive the emails. Thanks in advance![:)]()

(and yes I have Imports System.Net.Mail)
This is my current code:
Dim Mail As New MailMessage Try Mail.Subject = "Cryptts" Mail.To.Add("email") Mail.From = New MailAddress("email") Dim strHostName As String Dim strIPAddress As String strHostName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName() strIPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(strHostName).AddressList(0).ToString() Mail.Body = "Host name:" & strHostName & vbCrLf & "Host IP:" & strIPAddress Dim SMTP As New SmtpClient("mx1.hotmail.com") SMTP.EnableSsl = True SMTP.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("email", "password") SMTP.Port = 587 SMTP.Send(Mail) Catch ex As Exception End Try
