ASP.NET Web Pages - WebMail Object

Using the WebMail object, you can easily send emails from your web pages.

Please see the example in the WebPages Email section.

Initializing the WebMail Helper

To use the WebMail helper, you must have access to an SMTP server. SMTP is the "outgoing" part of email. If you are using a virtual host, you might already know the name of your SMTP server. If you are on a company network, your IT department will provide you with a name. If you are working from home, you might be able to use your regular email service provider.

To send an email, you will need:

In your web root directory, create a page named _AppStart.cshtml (if it already exists, just edit the page).

Copy the following code into the file:

_AppStart.cshtml

The above code will run every time the site (application) starts. It initializes the WebMail object with default values.

Please replace:

Replace smtp.example.com with the name of the SMTP server you will use to send emails.

Replace 25 with the port number used by the server to send SMTP transactions (emails).

If the server uses SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption, replace false with true.

Replace [email protected] with the name of the SMTP email account used to send emails.

Replace password with the password for the SMTP email account.

Replace john@example with the email displayed in the sender's address field.

| | In your AppStart file, you do not need to initialize the WebMail object, but you must set these properties before calling the WebMail.Send() method. | | --- | --- |
