User sending email attachments?

VB Programmer

I know how to send emails using ASP.NET. How can I allow the user to attach
a file to an email that they submit (via an ASPX online submission form)?

Ex: Allow user to submit a resume along with their info.

I'm assuming that the user would attach the file from their own computer? If
so, you would need to have a File Upload control on the form, so that when
they submit the form, the file to attach is sent to the server with it.

In the System.Web.Mail namespace you'll find 3 classes:

SmtpMail
MailMessage
MailAttachment

You would create the MailAttachment from the uploaded file, format a
MailMessage instance, add the MailAttachment to the MailMessage's
Attachments Collection, and use the SmtpMail class to send the MailMessage.

Will the MailAttachment namespace upload the attachment automatically from
the users pc to the server? Or, do I have to code this?

Thanks!
