Warning CS0612: 'SmtpClient.AuthenticationMethod' is obsolete

Hi,

We upgraded our product to use Aspose.Email Net from 6.1 to 18.2, and have the following warning message during compilation:
warning CS0612: ‘SmtpClient.AuthenticationMethod’ is obsolete
warning CS0612: ‘SmtpAuthentication’ is obsolete

The problem is that there is no further information either from the warning message or the API documentation about what should I do for the obsolete property, is this function been totally removed, or is it been replaced by other class or property?

 private static void SendEmailMessage(MailMessage cleanedMessage)
        {
            SmtpClient smtpclient = new SmtpClient();
            smtpclient.AuthenticationMethod = SmtpAuthentication.Auto;
            smtpclient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
            string smtpHost = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPHOST"];
            if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(smtpHost))
            {
                throw new VfeOnlineException("Smtp host entry is missing from web.config.");
            }
            // if no entry in the web.config the port will be converted as 0
            Int32 smtpPort = Convert.ToInt32(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPPORT"]);
            smtpclient.Host = smtpHost;
            smtpclient.Port = smtpPort;
            smtpclient.Send(cleanedMessage);
        }

In latest versions of API, there is no need to mention AuthenticationMethod however, you may need to mention SecurityOptions or SupportedEncryption. Please find more details at this link:

Moreover, please feel free to write back to us if you need additional information.

Hi MuzammilKhan,

Thanks for the help, yes, remove the AuthenticationMethod seems working fine.
