Send Email with CC and BCC using ASP.NET 2.0 and C#.NET
This tutorial will show you how to send a simple email message with CCs and BCCs using ASP.NET 2.0 and C#.NET
Sending a email with CCs and BCCs using ASP.NET 2.0 and VB.NET is actually very simple.
Server Intellect assists companies of all sizes with their hosting needs by offering fully configured server solutions coupled with proactive server management services. Server Intellect specializes in providing complete internet-ready server solutions backed by their expert 24/365 proactive support team.
First, you will need to import the System.Net.Mail namespace.
The System.Net.Mail namespace contains the SmtpClient and MailMessage Classes that we need in order to send the email and specify the CCs.
We use the btnSubmit_Click event to do the work.
We then call the emailClient.Send to send the message using the variables from our ASP.NET coded page. We use the CC and Bcc methods to add the emails we would like to CC to.
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try {
MailAddress SendFrom = new MailAddress(txtFrom.Text);
MailAddress SendTo = new MailAddress(txtTo.Text);
MailAddress SendCC = new MailAddress(txtCC.Text);
MailAddress SendBCC = new MailAddress(txtBCC.Text);
MailMessage MyMessage = new MailMessage(SendFrom, SendTo);
MyMessage.CC.Add(SendCC);
MyMessage.Bcc.Add(SendBCC);
MyMessage.Subject = txtSubject.Text;
MyMessage.Body = txtBody.Text;
SmtpClient emailClient = new SmtpClient(txtSMTPServer.Text);
emailClient.Send(MyMessage);
litStatus.Text = "Message Sent"; } catch (Exception ex) {
litStatus.Text=ex.ToString(); } |
The front end .aspx page looks something like this:
