Here is example code for sending email from SharePoint object model, main part of code would be “SPAdministrationWebApplication.Local.OutboundMailServiceInstance.Server.Address”, it will return mail server address which is assigned from SharePoint central administration site as per web application
Sample Code: ,
private void SendEmail()
{
try
{
SmtpClient client = LoadSmtpInformation();
client.Send(BuildMailMessage());
}
catch (Exception Ex)
{
Response.Write(Ex.Message);
}
}
private SmtpClient LoadSmtpInformation()
{
string smtpServer = SPAdministrationWebApplication.Local.OutboundMailServiceInstance.Server.Address;
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(smtpServer);
client.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
return client;
}
private MailMessage BuildMailMessage()
{
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.From = new MailAddress(SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser.Email);
message.To.Add(new MailAddress(User.Email));
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
message.Body = “Email Message”;
message.Subject = "Subject of Email";
return message;
}
Thank you very much disha for sharing such a useful and handy code, it really helped me.
ReplyDeleteActually I was facing challenges while sending email from 'visual studio workflow' send email activity, somehow visual studio workflow is ignoring my 'FROM' field value and as per my requirements I need to send email on behalf of different sender name, so finally I thought to use traditional object model classes to send email. That’s why I have found your blog.
Thanks,
