problem in sending e mails in reporting server

[sukumaster]

hi,

i want to send e mail in reporting server (.NET 2005). I can send all reports to a valid
e mail id but within a particular domain only .It means from gmail.com to gmail.com.But i cant send e mail to other domainsIt means,I cant send e mail from gmail to yahoo and other domains.

How can i send e mail to all domains?

Can you please specify how you are doing all that.

that usually is the result of not authenticating with the smtp server.

My smtp server for example, only lets emails go to users in it's own domain if you don't authenticate with it. Once I authenticate to it though, it lets me send emails to where ever I want.

Well as a breif bit I just borrowed from someone:
[code=vbnet]
Dim client As New SmtpClient("ima p.uk.aol.com", 143)
'username and password
client.Credenti als = New Net.NetworkCred ential("my username", "mypassword ")
[/code]
