Creating a web form in .net to send via email

[csdewan]

Hi All,

I’m wanting to create a form on the web in .net that lets user enter relevant data into it and then it sends the data via any email to the relevant recipient.

Was wondering what the best way would be to do this?

Any pointers or website or tutorials that anyone has used would be a great help.

Thanks.

Do you want the email to look the same as the form that the user entered the details into, or do you just want to email the actual details they entered?

Just want the email to have the actual details they have entered into the form.

In that case, it wshould be fairly simple. Something like this:

        'Create an instance of the MailMessage class
        Dim objMM As New MailMessage
        Dim strBody As New StringBuilder

        'Set the properties
        objMM.To = "someone@myemail.com"
        objMM.From = "me@myemail.com"

        'Send the email in HTML format
        objMM.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text

        'Set the priority
        objMM.Priority = MailPriority.Normal

        'Set the subject
        objMM.Subject = "My Email"

        'Set the body
        strBody.Append("Textbox1: " & Textbox1.Text & Environment.NewLine)
        strBody.Append("Textbox2: " & Textbox2.Text & Environment.NewLine)
        objMM.Body = strBody.ToString

        'Specify the Smtp Server
        SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "127.0.0.1"

        'send the message
        SmtpMail.Send(objMM)

You'll have to import System.Web.Mail for the above example as well.
