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!

Thanks Christopher!

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 :

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

See :

http://66.129.71.130/QuickStartv20/util/classbrowser.aspx?namespace=System.Net.Mail
for the classes available in System.Net.Mail

and

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("(e-mail address removed)", "DisplayName");
msg.To.Add("(e-mail address removed)");
msg.CC.Add("(e-mail address removed), (e-mail address removed)");
msg.Bcc.Add("(e-mail address removed), (e-mail address removed), (e-mail address removed)");
msg.Subject = "Subject";
msg.Body = "Message Body";
msg.IsBodyHtml = true;
server.Host = "mailserver";
server.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
server.Send(msg);

HTH.
