XML
A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (txtBody="<html>
<head>
<tit...").
Description: Request Validation has detected a potentially dangerous client input value, and processing of the request has been aborted. This value may indicate an attempt to compromise the security of your application, such as a cross-site scripting attack. You can disable request validation by setting validateRequest=false in the Page directive or in the configuration section. However, it is strongly recommended that your application explicitly check all inputs in this case.

Exception Details: System.Web.HttpRequestValidationException: A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (txtBody="<html>

you got to send a test email? Without taking the html, just the same text
example: Mail.Body = "This email was sent."

1 solution

The error is caused by having html in your text box.

In the page directivesin the ASPX page add the following
validateRequest="false"


For .Net 4.0 you may also need to make a change in your web config
<httpruntime requestvalidationmode="2.0" />


Have a look here too
