WCF Silverlight enabled service "Not Found" error - wcf

Question

I'm struggling with the following scenario (here is the big picture):
I have a WCF Silverlight-enabled service (based on the DomainService class) into my Web project. The service is designed to be called by the Silverlight 5 clients and also by non-Silverlight consumers.
The service displays the WSDL info at the address
"http://localhost/mywebapproot/Services/MailService.svc" and therefore it can
be discovered and implemented by any client within the Web
project (which is fine).
Here are the symptoms:
The service can't be called by any
Silverlight client (here is the problem!) The error returned is "The remote server returned an exception: Not Found". If I change the name of the
service in Web.Config (let's say I change
MyCompany.Web.Services.MailService into MailService), the service can
now be called by any Silverlight client but at that time the service
is no longer discoverable.
I put includeExceptionDetailInFaults at True and tried to inspect the service with Fiddler/HTTPDebuggerPro but they didn't give me any detailed information about the exception. It looks to me that the Silverlight clients, in this configuration and for some reason, aren't able to create the .SVC file on the fly.
Here is the implementation:
MailService.svc implementation
<%# ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="MyCompany.Web.Services.MailService" CodeBehind="MailService.svc.cs" %>
MailService.svc.cs implementation
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
public sealed partial class MailService : DomainService, IMailService
{
}
IMailService interface
[ServiceContract(ConfigurationName = "MyCompany.Web.Services.IMailService")]
public interface IMailService
{
//Some public methods flagged as [OperationContract] go here
}
Web.Config implementation

Thanks a lot for any help!
