Create a file in memory and than email

[Amy L.]

I am working on creating a web service that will create a signed xml file.
I would like to create this file in memory and than somehow email it to the
user that requested it to be generated. I would prefer a solution that does
not require the file to be first wrote to disk or requires the user to save
the file from the browser.

I know I can create a file using MemoryStream, but I not sure on how to
transform that MemroyStream into an actual file to attach to an email.

Thanks
Amy.

I did a simple SMTP client that can do that:

byte[] ba = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("This is the attachment.");
Smtp smtpClient = new Smtp("mail.myserver.com.", 25);
smtpClient.Send("(e-mail address removed)", "(e-mail address removed)", "subject", "Here is
the file...", "attach.txt", ba);
