And Here is the VB.Net code that works just fine:

Public Function CreateConnection(ByVal url As String) As ExchangeService
    ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = Function(ByVal obj As Object, ByVal certificate As X509Certificate, ByVal chain As X509Chain, ByVal errors As SslPolicyErrors) True
    Dim service As New ExchangeService()
    service.Url = New Uri(url)
    service.UseDefaultCredentials = True        ' Uses users windows login credentials
    Return service
End Function
Public Sub SendEmail(sEmailTo As String, slocation As String, dtdate As String, slogyard As String, sScaling As String, sLogMfct As String, sOther As String, sScaler As String, scheckbox As String)
    Dim sDomain As String = gDefaultEmailSuffix
    Dim sUserName As String = SystemInformation.UserName
    Dim service As ExchangeService = CreateConnection("https://myexchangeserver.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx")
    Dim sHTMLpre As String = $"{EmailBody(gHTML)}"
    Dim mailMessage = New EmailMessage(service)                 ' Use with exchange service
    'Dim mailMessage As New MailMessage()                       ' Use with SMTP client service

    slogyard = slogyard.Replace(ControlChars.Lf, "<br>")
    sScaling = sScaling.Replace(ControlChars.Lf, "<br>")
    sLogMfct = sLogMfct.Replace(ControlChars.Lf, "<br>")
    sOther = sOther.Replace(ControlChars.Lf, "<br>")

    If scheckbox = True Then
        scheckbox = "Yes"
    Else
        scheckbox = "No"
    End If

    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@Location]", slocation)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@Date]", dtdate)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@LogYard]", slogyard)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@Scaling]", sScaling)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@LogManufacturing]", sLogMfct)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@Scaler]", sScaler)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@Other]", sOther)
    sHTMLpre = sHTMLpre.Replace("[@RemotesExist]", scheckbox)

    mailMessage.ToRecipients.Add(New EmailAddress($"{sEmailTo}@{sDomain}"))     ' Use with Exchange service
    mailMessage.From = New EmailAddress($"{sUserName}@{sDomain}")               ' Use with Exchange service
    mailMessage.Subject = $"Scaling Yard Report for {slocation} on {dtdate}"    ' Use with Exchange
    mailMessage.Body = sHTMLpre                                                 ' Use with Exchange

    'mailMessage.IsBodyHtml = True                                              ' Use with SMTP CLient
    'mailMessage.To.Add($"{sEmailTo}@{sDomain}")                                ' Use with SMTP CLient
    'mailMessage.From = New MailAddress($"{sUserName}@{sDomain}")               ' Use with SMTP  
    'mailMessage.Subject = $"Scaling Yard Report for {slocation} on {dtdate}"   ' Use with SMTP
    'mailMessage.Body = sHTMLpre                                                ' Use with SMTP


    'Dim SmtpCli As New SmtpClient()                                            ' Leaving this just in case the EWS breaks
    'With SmtpCli                                                               ' SMTP Client Code
    '    .UseDefaultCredentials = False
    '    .Port = 25
    '    .DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network
    '    .Host = gSMTPServer
    '    .Credentials = New NetworkCredential(gSMTPUsername, gSMTPPassword)
    'End With

    Try
        'SmtpCli.Send(mailMessage)                                              ' Use with SMPT client
        mailMessage.SendAndSaveCopy()                                           ' Use with Exchange Service
        If bLastEmail = True Then
            MsgBox("Email Sent Successfully!")
            Call MonthlyLog("Email Sent", $"Recipients:{gEmailList}")
        End If
    Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
        Call MonthlyLog("Email Fail", $"{ex.Message}")

        Exit Sub
    End Try

End Sub

It fails at the line: mailMessage.SendAndSaveCopy() -in C# but not VB.Net

Getting the error: "the request failed. the underlying connection was closed: an unexpected error occurred on a send"

As I said, it works fine with vb.net code, so it is not an exchange server setting like throttling. Any ideas?

CodePudding user response：

Needed to update the target .Net Framework to at least 4.6 or higher. I was working with 4.5. Should have known because I have run into issues with the vb.net program not being able to send the emails on older non updated 32bit Windows 10 PC's that don't have 4.6.
