       const string fromPassword = "itsmanak";

           //string ext = email.Text;
           //int len = ext.Length;
           //for (int i = 0; i <= ext.Length; i++)
           //{
           //    if (ext[i] == '@')
           //        newext = ext.Substring(i, len);

           //}
           //if (newext == "@hotmail.com")
           //    Sendmail2();

           string num = "9211975256";
           string pas = "jahangir";

           ShowMessage("Check your email account for the code");
           TextBox1.Enabled = true;
           TextBox1.Focus();
           Button3.Visible=true;

           Label10.Text = ex.Message;
       }

Your code is quite crude or sending email using asp.net.
You have to make 4 objects to send a message in the order I put them in below.
 
Dim netMail As New MailMessage
Dim mailClient As New SmtpClient
Dim smtp_credentials As Net.NetworkCredential
Dim mailException As New SmtpException
 
netMail is the Sender/Body stuff
mailClient is for the credentials
smtp_credentials is for connecting to the mail server
mailException is for diagnostics, figure out whats wrong
 
netMail.Sender = new MailAddress("website", "<sender@domain.com>")
netMail.From = new MailAddress("website", "<sender@domain.com>")
netMail.ReplyToList.Add(new MailAddress("website", "<reply@domain.com>"))
netMail.to(new MailAddress("website", "<to@domain.com>"))
netMail.Subject = "blah"
netmail.Body = "text"
 
mailClient.UseDefaultCredentials = False
smtp_credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential
smtp_credentials.Domain = "DomainName"
smtp_credentials.UserName = "LoginID"
smtp_credentials.Password = "Password"
mailClient.Credentials = smtp_credentials
 
mailClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network
mailClient.Host = "ServerAddress"
mailClient.Port = "SMTP_PortNum"
 
The mailClient sends the netmail, which is everthing needed to transmit
mailClient.Send(netMail)
netMail.Dispose
 
Your going to have to play around with the credentials. The above sends to a virvirtual SMTP server
 
You have to wrap the email address in brackets, for other servers to pick it up
 
Sending email is tricky, and takes alot of testing to make sure it works for all email addresses.

I expanded the edit box, and the overflow disappeared on firefox. so I lost focus on the text to the right and can't get it back.

it is showing an error "The specified String is not a valid email address." Even i wrote correct address and place your given code

The code I posted is just a broad foundation for how it works, it does not work. Did you format your mailaddress like the example below? <pre> = new mailaddress("Website Name", "<" & emailAddress & ">") </pre> I would of posted a working example, but my current code is too complicated to follow and understand. Did you wrap your code in so you can trap the SMTP Error <pre> Try Catch ex as SMTPException End Try </pre>
