Send ing Email with CDonts and C#

ASP.Net, C#, Email message, CDonts not CDO

I am writing an ASP.Net application where I cannot use CDO. I must
use CDonts. I cannot find an example of this on the Internet. I only
see examples on how to do this using CDO. Unfortunately, I don't have
that option. I must use C# and CDonts. Do you have any ideas or
code?

In traditional ASP, the code was:
objMail = Server.CreateOb ject("CDONTS.Ne wMail");
objMail.To = "so*****@somepl ace.com";
objMail.From = "[e-mail]" ;
objMail.Subject = "Test";
objMail.Importa nce = 2;
objMail.MailFor mat = 0;
objMail.BodyFor mat = 0;
objMail.Body = "Test message";
objMail.Send;

How is that ported to .Net in C#? What do you declare the objMail
variable? I tried it as an object variable and .Net didn't like it.

Thanks,
Marty

C#.Net does not support unmanaged COM code unlike Vbscript and VB.Net.
To achieve the same functionally as in Visual Basic there are 2 steps that you can follow:

1. Create a wrapper class for the unmanaged COM code.
using "The type library importer" (tlbimp) command line tool:

e.g. tlbimp CDonts.dll /out:CDdontNetWr apper.dll
read the help for more inf. regarding Tlbimp.exe

2. Use late binding code shown bellow:

public void sendEmail(strin g subj, string afrom, string toemal, string contentBody){
try
{

const int CdoBodyFormatTe xt = 1;
const int CdoBodyFormatHT ML = 0;
const int CdoMailFormatMi me = 0;
const int CdoMailFormatTe xt = 1;

Object EmailMessage;

//Create CDO message object
Type typDOM = Type.GetTypeFro mProgID("cdonts .NewMail");
EmailMessage = Activator.Creat eInstance(typDO M);

object[] param = new object[1];

//Set email adress, subject And body
param[0] = toemal;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("To", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);

//Subject
param[0] = subj;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("Subject", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);

//Body
param[0] = contentBody;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("Body", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);

//MailFormat
param[0] = CdoMailFormatTe xt;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("MailForma t", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);

//BodyFormat
param[0] = CdoBodyFormatTe xt;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("BodyForma t", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);


//Set sender address If specified.
if (afrom.Length > 0)
{
param[0] = afrom;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("From", BindingFlags.Se tProperty, null, EmailMessage, param);
}


//Send the message
param[0] = null;
typDOM.InvokeMe mber("Send", BindingFlags.In vokeMethod,
null, EmailMessage, param);


}
catch (Exception ex)
{
System.Web.Http Context.Current .Response.Write (ex.Message);
}
}

//Enjoy
