Sending Emailing with an attachment

[Guest]

Erm, as the subject title says... How do I manage to send emails with attachments in C#DOTNET, I've looked around for some example code, but the stuff I get is usually C#2003, and I'm running version C#2002, or, the examp[le code is buried under hordes of other code!!! Has anyone got a nice little class I could drop in there, or any examples with .NET Framework classes!?

I'm a newbie, so the easier to read, the better!!! LO

Hi Dabz,

Ummm ... I'm working with VS.NET 2003 myself, but you should check the
classes in the System.Web.Mail-Namespace. There should be a MailMessage
class, which has an "Attachment"-Property. This property contains a List of
MailAttachment-Objects ... and these objects you'll have to create .

Regards,

[CODE

[CODE

Error message is:

Any idea's on what's going on, or will this too not work on C#.NET2002 too??

This should help http://www.knowdotnet.com/articles/smtp.html I don't think
I used an attachment in this example but .Attachement is just another
property and if I remember correctly, you just point it to the file
reference of what you want to attach,


HTH,

Bill

mmmm, it should be working fine, everything seems to be there... bit of a bugger!!! :

The problem is, I cannot connect to my server...

* Dabz scratch's his head

Oh well, I'll just have to see what each functions returns, see if I can figure it out doing that!!! :

System.Web.HttpException: Could not access 'CDO.Message' object. --->
System.Ref lection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown

SWM relies on CDO - which is one of the few reasons you should consider
something else.

Try this:
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/IndySMTP.asp

There is an additional example to send an attachment in the newsgroup for it.
