Sending mail encounters AuthenticationException (remote certificateis invalid ...)

[Afshar]

Hi there

I'm sending email via a server that uses SSL. The server has
Certification problems. Whenever I send email I got following
exception:
System.Security .Authentication .Authentication Exception: The remote
certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

How can I tell .NET to not check certfication and so get rid of this
exception?

see the ICertificatePol icy interface to build a custom validation
routine, and ServicePointMan ager.Certificat ePolicy to install it.

ServicePointMan ager.Certificat ePolicy?
