smtpmail.send

I'm trying to expand my horizons here by working through an ASP.Net book.
When I do the example that uses:
Line 55: Mail.From = "feedback@dotnet.itags.org.graymad.com"
Line 56: SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
Line 57: SmtpMail.Send(Mail)
I get:
[COMException (0x8004020f): The server rejected one or more recipient
addresses. The server response was: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for
myemail@dotnet.itags.org.comcast.net
]
Since both my code and the code from the book failed, I'm assuming there's
something else I need to configure? I show SMTP running under services so
there must be something else I need to do here. The remainder of the
exception follows. Thanks

Sorry, here's a little more detail:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
' Create MailMessage instance, set properties, and send
Dim Mail As New MailMessage
Mail.To = TextBox1.Text
Mail.Cc = TextBox2.Text
Mail.Bcc = TextBox3.Text
Mail.Subject = TextBox4.Text
Mail.Body = TextBox5.Text
' Set the property below to a valid email address
Mail.From = "kmbarz@.comcast.net"
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost"
SmtpMail.Send(Mail)
...

hi,
the possible reason could be that your mail server is not configured to
relay messages from your smtp server or you or the from address does not hav
e
permissions to relay messages. Make sure your mail server allows relaying of
messages from your smtp server or instead try SmtpMail.SmtpServer = ""
instead of localhost and check if it works
