回答1:

Why it throws it? probably because MS is doing something goofy under the covers.

IIRC, that SecureString code actually makes an interop call down to advapi32.dll.

My knee jerk reaction is to:

1. Disable any antivirus software, and see if that fixes it.

2. Make sure you have access to that dll.

I believe instantiating the MailMessage doesn't read from the Web.config. The SmtpClient reads the SMTP set up in the web.config.

Can you show more of your code? Maybe the rest of the GetMailMessage method.
