This is just a quick snippet for sending emails using standard .NET/C# components. Here, I assume that FTP server is already configured or you have the details.
/* EmailService.cs */
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace MySampleProject
{
public class EmailService
{
public void SendEmail(string body)
{
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage oMailMsg = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
oMailMsg.To.Add(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ToEmailAddress"]);
oMailMsg.Subject = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Subject"];
oMailMsg.IsBodyHtml = true;
oMailMsg.Body = body;
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient oSMTPClient = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
oSMTPClient.Send(oMailMsg);
}
}
}
The standard SmtpClient will look for smtp settings in the web.config/app.config.
<system.net> <mailSettings> <smtp from="[email protected]"> <network host="localhost" password="" userName=""/> </smtp> </mailSettings> </system.net>
Also, it is best practise to add ‘To’ email address and ‘Subject’ in config settings, for deploying code in different enviornments (QA / Staging / Production)
<appSettings> <add key="ToEmailAddress" value="[email protected]"/> <add key="Subject" value="Some one has sent an email using website...Amazaing!"/> </appSettings>
Cheers!
