[Mono-list] Exception When Using System.Net.Mail

[Atsushi Eno]

Hi,

SmtpClient has been improved between 1.2.5 and 1.2.6beta (and
possibly between 1.2.4 and 1.2.5) and now it seems working now.

(AFAIR there was a bug in former SmtpClient that incorrectly
assumes NetworkCredential existence even without setting it.)
