How to send email in ASP.NET C#

I’m very new to the ASP.NET C# area. I’m planning to send a mail through ASP.NET C# and this is the SMTP address from my ISP:

smtp-proxy.tm.net.my

Below is what I tried to do, but failed.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="SendMail" %>
<html>
<head id="Head1" runat="server"><title>Email Test Page</title></head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        Message to: <asp:TextBox ID="txtTo" runat="server" /><br>
        Message from: <asp:TextBox ID="txtFrom" runat="server" /><br>
        Subject: <asp:TextBox ID="txtSubject" runat="server" /><br>
        Message Body:<br>
        <asp:TextBox ID="txtBody" runat="server" Height="171px" TextMode="MultiLine"  Width="270px" /><br>
        <asp:Button ID="Btn_SendMail" runat="server" onclick="Btn_SendMail_Click" Text="Send Email" /><br>
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

And below is my code-behind:

using System;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Net.Mail;
public partial class SendMail : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Btn_SendMail_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailMessage mailObj = new MailMessage(
            txtFrom.Text, txtTo.Text, txtSubject.Text, txtBody.Text);
        SmtpClient SMTPServer = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1");
        try
        {
            SMTPServer.Send(mailObj);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Label1.Text = ex.ToString();
        }
    }
}

PS: I’m sorry that I couldn’t understand the receiver/sender SMTP concept, and so I am trying to understand the whole concept from here.

Method 1

Just go through the below code.

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("mail.MyWebsiteDomainName.com", 25);

smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="40292e262f000d3917252233293425042f2d21292e0e212d256e232f2d">[email protected]</a>", "myIDPassword");
// smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true; // uncomment if you don't want to use the network credentials
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();

//Setting From , To and CC
mail.From = new MailAddress("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8de4e3ebe2cdc0f4dae8effee4f9e8c9e2e0ece4e3c3ece0e8">[email protected]</a>", "MyWeb Site");
mail.To.Add(new MailAddress("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="4c25222a230c01351b292e3f2538290823212d2522022d2129">[email protected]</a>"));
mail.CC.Add(new MailAddress("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8bc6f2cee6eae2e7c2cfcbece6eae2e7a5e8e4e6">[email protected]</a>"));

smtpClient.Send(mail);

Method 2

Try using this code instead. Note: In the “from address” give your correct email id and password.

protected void btn_send_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

    System.Net.Mail.MailMessage mail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
    mail.To.Add("to gmail address");
    mail.From = new MailAddress("from gmail address", "Email head", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
    mail.Subject = "This mail is send from asp.net application";
    mail.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
    mail.Body = "This is Email Body Text";
    mail.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
    mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
    mail.Priority = MailPriority.High;
    SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
    client.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("from gmail address", "your gmail account password");
    client.Port = 587;
    client.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
    client.EnableSsl = true;
    try
    {
        client.Send(mail);
        Page.RegisterStartupScript("UserMsg", "<script>alert('Successfully Send...');if(alert){ window.location='SendMail.aspx';}</script>");
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        Exception ex2 = ex;
        string errorMessage = string.Empty;
        while (ex2 != null)
        {
            errorMessage += ex2.ToString();
            ex2 = ex2.InnerException;
        }
        Page.RegisterStartupScript("UserMsg", "<script>alert('Sending Failed...');if(alert){ window.location='SendMail.aspx';}</script>");
    }
}

Method 3

You can try this using hotmail like this:-

MailMessage o = new MailMessage("From", "To","Subject", "Body");
NetworkCredential netCred= new NetworkCredential("Sender Email","Sender Password");
SmtpClient smtpobj= new SmtpClient("smtp.live.com", 587); 
smtpobj.EnableSsl = true;
smtpobj.Credentials = netCred;
smtpobj.Send(o);

Method 4

Try the following :

try
{
    var fromEmailAddress =  ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailAddress"].ToString();
    var fromEmailDisplayName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailDisplayName"].ToString();
    var fromEmailPassword = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailPassword"].ToString();
    var smtpHost = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPHost"].ToString();
    var smtpPort = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPPort"].ToString();

    string body = "Your registration has been done successfully. Thank you.";
    MailMessage message = new MailMessage(new MailAddress(fromEmailAddress, fromEmailDisplayName), new MailAddress(ud.LoginId, ud.FullName));
    message.Subject = "Thank You For Your Registration";
    message.IsBodyHtml = true;
    message.Body = body;

    var client = new SmtpClient();
    client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromEmailAddress, fromEmailPassword);
    client.Host = smtpHost;
    client.EnableSsl = true;
    client.Port = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(smtpPort) ? Convert.ToInt32(smtpPort) : 0;
    client.Send(message);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    throw (new Exception("Mail send failed to loginId " + ud.LoginId + ", though registration done."));
}

And then in you web.config add the following in between

<!--Email Config-->
<add key="FromEmailAddress" value="sender emailaddress"/>
<add key="FromEmailDisplayName" value="Display Name"/>
<add key="FromEmailPassword" value="sender Password"/>
<add key="SMTPHost" value="smtp-proxy.tm.net.my"/>
<add key="SMTPPort" value="smptp Port"/>

Method 5

You can try MailKit
MailKit is an Open Source cross-platform .NET mail-client library that is based on MimeKit and optimized for mobile devices. You can use easily in your application.You can download from here.

                MimeMessage mailMessage = new MimeMessage();
                mailMessage.From.Add(new MailboxAddress(fromName, <a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="a3c5d1cccee3c2c7c7d1c6d0d08dc0ccce">[email protected]</a>));
                mailMessage.Sender = new MailboxAddress(senderName, <a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="bdced8d3d9d8cffddcd9d9cfd8cece93ded2d0">[email protected]</a>);
                mailMessage.To.Add(new MailboxAddress(emailid, emailid));
                mailMessage.Subject = subject;
                mailMessage.ReplyTo.Add(new MailboxAddress(replyToAddress));
                mailMessage.Subject = subject;
                var builder = new BodyBuilder();
                builder.TextBody = "Hello There";           
                try
                {
                    using (var smtpClient = new SmtpClient())
                    {
                        smtpClient.Connect("HostName", "Port", MailKit.Security.SecureSocketOptions.None);
                        smtpClient.Authenticate("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="7005031502301e111d155e131f1d">[email protected]</a>", "password");

                        smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
                        Console.WriteLine("Success");
                    }
                }
                catch (SmtpCommandException ex)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());              
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());                
                }

Method 7

Just pass parameter
like
body – The content(query) from the customer
subject – subject that defined in mail subject
username – nothing name anything
mail – mail (required)

   public static bool SendMail(String body, String subject, string username, String mail)
    {
        bool isSendSuccess = false;
        try
        {
            var fromEmailAddress = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailAddress"].ToString();
            var fromEmailDisplayName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailDisplayName"].ToString();
            var fromEmailPassword = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FromEmailPassword"].ToString();
            var smtpHost = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPHost"].ToString();
            var smtpPort = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SMTPPort"].ToString();


            MailMessage message = new MailMessage(new MailAddress(fromEmailAddress, fromEmailDisplayName),
                new MailAddress(mail, username));
            message.Subject = subject;
            message.IsBodyHtml = true;
            message.Body = body;

            var client = new SmtpClient();
            client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
            client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromEmailAddress, fromEmailPassword);
            client.Host = smtpHost;
            client.EnableSsl = false;
            client.Port = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(smtpPort) ? Convert.ToInt32(smtpPort) : 0;
            client.Send(message);
            isSendSuccess = true;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            throw (new Exception("Mail send failed to loginId " + mail + ", though registration done."+ex.ToString()+"n"+ex.StackTrace));
        }

        return isSendSuccess;
    }

if your using go daddy server this work . add this in web.config

  <appSettings>
    ---other ---setting

    <add key="FromEmailAddress" value="<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="f19c88949c90989db1969c90989ddf929e9c">[email protected]</a>" />
    <add key="FromEmailDisplayName" value="anyname" />
    <add key="FromEmailPassword" value="<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="711c0801100202061e031531">[email protected]</a>" />
    <add key="SMTPHost" value="relay-hosting.secureserver.net" />
    <add key="SMTPPort" value="25" />

</appSettings>

if you are using localhost or vps server change this configuration to this

 <appSettings>
    ---other ---setting

    <add key="FromEmailAddress" value="<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="8ce1f5e9e1ede5e0ccebe1ede5e0a2efe3e1">[email protected]</a>" />

    <add key="SMTPHost" value="smtp.gmail.com" /> 
    <add key="SMTPPort" value="587" />
</appSettings>

change the code

          client.EnableSsl = true;

If you want to generate your email bodies in razor, you can use Mailzory. Also, you can download the nuget package from here.

// template path
var viewPath = Path.Combine("Views/Emails", "hello.cshtml");
// read the content of template and pass it to the Email constructor
var template = File.ReadAllText(viewPath);

var email = new Email(template);

// set ViewBag properties
email.ViewBag.Name = "Johnny";
email.ViewBag.Content = "Mailzory Is Funny";

// send email
var task = email.SendAsync("<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b6dbd7dfdaccd9c4cff6d9c3c2dad9d9dd98d5d9db">[email protected]</a>", "subject");
task.Wait()

Method 10

According to this :

SmtpClient and its network of types are poorly designed, we strongly
recommend you use https://github.com/jstedfast/MailKit and
https://github.com/jstedfast/MimeKit instead.

Reference : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.mail.smtpclient?view=netframework-4.8

It’s better to use MailKit to send emails :

var message = new MimeMessage ();
            message.From.Add (new MailboxAddress ("Joey Tribbiani", "<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="147e7b716d5472667d717a70673a777b79">[email protected]</a>"));
            message.To.Add (new MailboxAddress ("Mrs. Chanandler Bong", "<a href="https://getridbug.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="e08388818e848c8592a0869289858e8493ce838f8d">[email protected]</a>"));
            message.Subject = "How you doin'?";

            message.Body = new TextPart ("plain") {
                Text = @"Hey Chandler,
I just wanted to let you know that Monica and I were going to go play some paintball, you in?
-- Joey"
            };

            using (var client = new SmtpClient ()) {
                // For demo-purposes, accept all SSL certificates (in case the server supports STARTTLS)
                client.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = (s,c,h,e) => true;

                client.Connect ("smtp.friends.com", 587, false);

                // Note: only needed if the SMTP server requires authentication
                client.Authenticate ("joey", "password");

                client.Send (message);
                client.Disconnect (true);
            }

Method 11

Google may block sign-in attempts from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards. Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your account safer.

Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include:

  1. The Mail app on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or below
  2. The Mail app on your Windows phone preceding the 8.1 release
  3. Some Desktop mail clients like Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird

Therefore, you have to enable Less Secure Sign-In (or Less secure app access) in your google account.

After sign into a google account, go to:

https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
or
https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps

In C#, you can use the following code:

        MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage();
        BodyBuilder Attachmint = new BodyBuilder();
        message.From.Add(new MailboxAddress("name sender", "Mail From"));
        message.To.Add(MailboxAddress.Parse("Mail To"));
        message.Subject = Subject;
        message.Body = new TextPart("plain")
        {
            Text = tex_body.Text + Massage
        };

        Attachmint.Attachments.Add("Attatchment Path");
        message.Body = Attachmint.ToMessageBody();

        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
        client.Connect("smtp.gmail.com", 465, true);
        client.Authenticate("Mail from", "Password mail");
        client.Send(message);

you can send mail from Gmail to Private Mail As [email protected]
