Is there a way with the .NET Framework to send emails through an SSL SMTP server on port 465?
The usual way:
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient _SmtpServer = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("tempurl.org");
_SmtpServer.Port = 465;
_SmtpServer.EnableSsl = true;
_SmtpServer.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password");
_SmtpServer.Timeout = 5000;
_SmtpServer.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
mail.From = new MailAddress(from);
mail.To.Add(to);
mail.CC.Add(cc);
mail.Subject = subject;
mail.Body = content;
mail.IsBodyHtml = useHtml;
_SmtpServer.Send(mail);
times out:

I googled around and found that System.Net.Mail supports connections on port 587 (default port for Explicit SSL that starts unencrypted then issues a STARTDLS then switches to an Encrypted connection: RFC 2228), but doesn't support Implicit SSL (entire connection is wrapped in an SSL layer)...
