Send Email in ASP.Net 2.0 - Feed back Form
using System.Web.Mail;
using System.Net.Mail;
The Send mail functionality is similar to Dotnet 1.1 except for few changes
System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient is used instead of System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail (obsolete in Dotnet 2.0).
System.Net.MailMessage Class is used instead of System.Web.Mail.MailMessage (obsolete in Dotnet 2.0)
The System.Net.MailMessage class collects From address as MailAddress object.
The System.Net.MailMessage class collects To, CC, Bcc addresses as MailAddressCollection.
MailMessage Body Format is replaced by IsBodyHtml
The Code is Self explanatory by itself.
public void SendMailUsingSmtp()
{
SmtpClient smtpclient = new SmtpClient();
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
try
{
//SMTP Server Details

//Checkout the Credentitial for smtp mail server

}
Below is a C# and VB.NET class that demonstrates using System.Net.Mail to send an email.
Calling the function from code
MailHelper.SendMailMessage("fromAddress@yourdomain.com", "toAddress@yourdomain.com", "bccAddress@yourdomain.com", "ccAddress@yourdomain.com", "Sample Subject", "Sample body of text for mail message")
