I receive this error when my code executes from my Windows 2003 server, however from my Windows 7 dev machine the mail process works flawlessly every time. Project is configured for 2.0 framework. Is there a missing component that is needed on the server??
Error Detail.
[FormatException: The specified e-mail address is currently not supported.]

Web.Config details (this is non-standard format for GoDaddy, but I must run my code on local network, hence I cannot use their relay server - and this works on my Windows 7 box)
<mailSettings>
<smtp>
<network host="smtpout.secureserver.net" defaultCredentials="false"
userName="xxxxx@sendtome.us" password="xxxxx" enableSsl="false" port="80"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
VB Code:
Imports System.Net.Mail
Dim mm As New MailMessage(lblEmail.Text, "2manybooks@sentome.us")
mm.Subject = "Welcome to xxxx"
mm.IsBodyHtml = True
mm.Body = lblMail.Text.ToString
Dim smtp As New SmtpClient
smtp.Send(mm)
Note: lblEmail.text is a field containing a standard email address; that field is loaded from a database.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!!
