   Console::WriteLine( L"Sending an email message to {0} by using SMTP host {1} port {2}.", to, client->Host, client->Port );
   client->Send( message );
   client->~SmtpClient();
}
public static void CreateTestMessage4(string server)
{
    MailAddress from = new MailAddress("ben@contoso.com");
    MailAddress to = new MailAddress("Jane@contoso.com");
    MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to);
    message.Subject = "Using the SmtpClient class.";

         to.ToString(), client.Host, client.Port);

    try
    {
        client.Send(message);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
