I have my project working in .NET 4.0 and when I upgraded to .NET 4.5.2 the Rebex Mail is causing the following error.

A first chance exception of type 'System.TypeInitializationException' occurred in my.app

If I remove reference to the Rebex controls, it works.

Has anyone else had any luck with .NET 4.5.2 OR do you know what I can do to fix this?

I got it figured out. The problem was on my side, the Rebex DLL's were not being copied to the output directory. Changed copy to local and it works. Not sure how it got changed, but all is good.

Thanks for letting us know that the issue is resolved.

For other users - the .NET4.5.x Framework is supported by Rebex components, just use the assemblies from the 'net-4.0' folder of your Rebex component installation.

The other problem I came across: I needed to add the Rebex.Common.dll

So is everything working for you now?

Yes, it is working great.

I just wanted to update my answer to include what I had to do differently for .NET 4 VS .NET 4.5.2
