SMTP authentication

Hi,

I have been trying to implement an e-mail sending process. I am using
System.Web.EMail. it works fine with my local SMTP server, but if I set the
server of my hosting company (using their SMTP server) I get an error saying
access denied.
How can I do it? I thought It would require setting a user and password like
the pop3 account configured in Outlook (Office or Express), but couldn't find
the properties to set them.

As an alternative I checked using the IndyProject, but seems to be too
robust for what I need. I just need to send e-mails with attachments and
nothing else. Using Indy would be like having a Lotus just to go to the
groceries store.

I will appreciate any help.

Thank you,
