"how can i solve it"... personally, I would start by examining the stack trace that you seem to think is unimportant.

I agree, where is the stack trace?

Yes, it would be better to show the code where you have the exception, show the stack and more importantly show the config file

Verify that your SMTP service is allowing connections (looks like your SMTP service should be hosted on local machine from error 127.0.0.1:25 localhost=127.0.0.1 SMTP well known port=25)

Quote:
An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.]

This shows that your SMTP service might be rejecting your connection for some reason.

Depending on your SMTP service

1) check to see if relaying is allowed
2) check to make sure connections are allowed from localhost
3) if you have black list check and make sure 127.0.0.1 isn't blacklisted
4) check if smtp authentication is required
5) sometimes depending on anti-virus SMTP service might be blocked

etc.

i contacted to yahoo support chat service !
i discuss about this with them and they said i should use mail plus service!
the server that you use for sending emails to users mail must give you permission !
yahoo give you this permission with upgrade your yahoo mail to mail plus...
mail plus allow you to use yahoo smtp service :)
and something else is that you should enter on your config file something like this code :

HTML

<system.net>
        <mailsettings>
            <smtp from="YourYahooID@yahoo.com"> 
              <network host="smtp.mail.yahoo.com" port="465"
                  enableSsl="true" defaultCredentials="true"/>
            </smtp>
        </mailsettings>
</system.net>

gud luck !
