open default mailclient, attachments

[Christian H]

Hello,

I'm trying to open the default mailclient , and add attachments to a new
message.
The closest I've come so far , is to use Diagnostics.Process (see below).
The problem, is that the attachments does not seem to be included.

I've seen this done with MAPI, with c++

Does anyone have a solution?

private void ExecuteFile(String s){
System.Diagnostics.Process p=new System.Diagnostics.Process();
p.StartInfo.FileName=s;
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute=true;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput=false;
p.Start();
p.Dispose();
}

private void OpenMailClient(){
System.Text.StringBuilder MsgBuilder =new System.Text.StringBuilder();
MsgBuilder.Append("mailto:te**@testmail.com");
MsgBuilder.Append("&c********@testcc.com");
MsgBuilder.Append("&b*********@testbcc.com");
MsgBuilder.Append("&subject=this is test subject");
MsgBuilder.Append("&body=this is test body");
MsgBuilder.Append("&Attach=@c:\\sea.log");

ExecuteFile(MsgBuilder.ToString());
}

I think this functionality is not implemented in .NET.
But you can create your own SMTP client or use already existing solution.
e.g.
* Parts from: "A class for sending emails with attachments in C#"
