to send a mail from c# console application

[sridhard2406]

Hi All,

I trying to send a mail from C# console application.
Please find the my code as below.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Web.Mail;
using System.Web.Configuration;

namespace samplemail
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                System.Net.Mail.MailMessage mailMsg = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
                mailMsg.From = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress("from@fromdomain.com"));
                mailMsg.To.Add(new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress("to@todomain.com"));
                mailMsg.Subject = "Send Using Web Mail";
                mailMsg.Body = "This is test mail";
                System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient _smtp = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("localhost");
                _smtp.EnableSsl = false;
                _smtp.Send(mailMsg);
                _smtp = null;
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Exception caught in process: {0}", e.ToString());
                Console.ReadLine();
            }

        }

    }
}

This code is working fine with running local smtp server running on my system, I just want to know that, is there anyway to send to mail from default smtp server from IIS server. Like "sendmail" command on Linux.

As Far I have understood the protocol. SMTP server installed in your local machine will send the mail to the desired client.

Why dont you try to mail using your local SMTP Server?
