Method 1

System.Web.Mail was in .NET Framework v1.1
System.Net.Mail is in .NET Framework v2.0 onwards

They are both used for the same purpose. If you use System.Web.Mail it only shows a warning, saying this is deprecated. It still works as supposed to.

If you are really using higher version (2.0 or later) of .NET framework, then use System.Net.Mail.

Method 2

First line in MSDN for the System.Web.Mail namespace:

The classes in this namespace have been deprecated. Use the System.Net.Mail namespace instead
