New ASP.NET 2.0 Mail Question

[David Hearn]

I am converting one of my ASP.NET 1.1 apps over to 2.0 and I see that the
old way of sending mail will still work, but I want to make it clean and
convert over to the new way of doing things. You used to be able to specify
CC and BCC recipients and now I can't figure out how to specify these.

I am using the following when converting:

Dim MailObj as New System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient
MailObj.Host = "myhost"
MailObj.Send(From.Text, To.Text, Subj.Text, Msg.Text)

So how do I specify CC and BCC for this?

Thanks in advance!

You still need to use MailMessage if you want to add CC and BCC recipients.
The Send method also works with a MailMessage object.

See :
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archi...10/432854.aspx

Although Scott's article doesn't mention BCC, its usage is identical to CC.

See :

http://66.129.71.130/QuickStartv20/u...ystem.Net.Mail
for the classes available in System.Net.Mail

and

http://66.129.71.130/QuickStartv20/u...ss=MailMessage

For the methods available in System.Net.Mail.MailMessage

Hi David,

you may try something like this -

MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
SmtpClient server = new SmtpClient();
msg.From = new MailAddress("xy*@xyz.com", "DisplayName");
msg.To.Add("xy*@xyz.com");
msg.CC.Add("xy*@xyz.com, ab*@xyz.com");
msg.Bcc.Add("xy*@xyz.com, ab*@xyz.com, cd*@de.ca");
msg.Subject = "Subject";
msg.Body = "Message Body";
msg.IsBodyHtml = true;
server.Host = "mailserver";
server.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
server.Send(msg);

HTH.
