Simple VB Email Program - Error Message

[Developer Dude]

Hi:

I am trying to get a simple vb email program working but I am getting

the following error message: "System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: Failure sending mail.

Inner Exception. IO Exception: Unable to read data from the transport connection.

net_io connection closed" I have done a lot of research but nothing works. Here is my code.

I also confirmed smtp info with my service provider.

Imports System.Net.Mail



Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Dim Mail As New MailMessage
Mail.Subject = "test email"
Mail.To.Add("daveclark@rogers.com")
Mail.From = New MailAddress("johnbrown@rogers.com")
Mail.Body = "This is a test email using VB.NET"

Dim SMTP As New SmtpClient("smtp.broadband.rogers.com")
SMTP.EnableSsl = True
SMTP.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("johnbrown@rogers.com", "A82")
SMTP.Port = "465"
SMTP.Send(Mail)

End Sub

Help would be greatly appreciated.
