Are you sending your email via IIS ? if yes then most probably your local smtp server is not allowing relay by default. so you must enable relay for that domain or authenticate to the local smtp first. This can be done in the IIS settings :) you can google for it

I have did authentication before itself.

Can you post your code ??

Dim mailobj As New System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient
        mailobj.Host = "localhost"
        mailobj.Send(txtfrom.Text, txtto.Text, txtsub.Text, txtmsg.Text)

What I have to do in relay option?
