Send Email Like @mailto But From Code Behind ASP.Net
Aug 25, 2011
Scenario: We are using a createwizard control to create users for our website. When the user has an email we simply send the user the email with their username and password saying their account has been created. Using MailMessage and SMTPClient.
Problem: When the user doesn't have an email (ex. temp employee, student) I need to be able to generate the email but have it open via the creator's mail client so that they can enter in an email themselves/see the username and password. Similar to @mailto functionality. Question: Is there a way to do this from the code behind? I have tried searching but everywhere is telling me to use MailMessage and SMTPClient which I don't need.
i have tried various ways to accomplish this, but to no avail. I don't know how to generate the replacement text (mailto link) so I just used a bunch of x's until I can figure it out. Here is what I have (which currently not replacing emails in string): Here is my Code behind:
I have a code here for sending emails in Visual Basic ASP.NET 3.5, but it is not working properly I have a feeling I left out something crucial, what can it be?

I have a form with a "Send" button to test a code to send SMTP emails.It fires the click event when I hit the "Send" button, but the email is never sent if I leave the form running. When I close it, the email is sent.This is not the needed behavior because the User may never close the Application (this is a Client/Server application, not Web).Below is the code behind the "Send" button's click event[code]...
I am sending an email with an attachment using the following Code
Dim msg As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(req.EmailFrom, req.EmailTo) Dim att As New System.Net.Mail.Attachment("C:Documents and SettingsmichaelrDesktop1216259.pdf") With msg .Attachments.Add(att)
[code]....
The file size of the attachment is 396KB, upon the recipient receiving the email outlook shows the file size as 543Kb. Strange thing is if I send an email with the same attachment using outlook the file size is 396Kb.I understand that file sizes can increase due to the attachment being base 64 encoded as opposed to just raw binary.What I am failing to see is why outlook send a file which is 396KB in size but in code when sending it, the same file is 543Kb.
how would i implement a way that i would not hard code the email message that the application send to email recipients? how will i also include email message formatting (text in bold, italic, etc.)?

Is the problem that I need to show "credentials" (i.e. user/pass)? If so, what would those credentials be? Can I use my yahoo email SMTP server with my login info to do it? And is this all I'd need to add to add the credentials?

Is there a way for it to only email me once every 20 minutes or so? Or to only email me if a different computer goes offline, then I don't keep getting the same email.
