 |  I am trying to send an email to a working email and i receive the error:
 "
 The socket object used by MailBee was unexpectedly closed. InnerException message follows: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond."
 
 How do i resolve this?

          There're two typical reasons:

 - A firewall/antivirus/antispam software intercept traffic and breaks normal connection flow. We encountered many applications of such kind which have various bugs which causes weird issues.
 
 - The mail server was busy or network connection was under heavy load, so the mail server didn't reply during long time, so the socket was closed by timeout.
 
 If the issue happens occasionally, it most probably is caused by the mail server, but if it happens each time you run the application, you should try to temporarily disable the traffic filter for testing purposes.
 
 Also, logging may shed some light on what exactly goes wrong.
 
 Best regards,
 Andrew
