Send eMail with Outlook

[lutzs]

Hi,

i would like to send a mail with Outlook.
Here's the source:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mail;
using Outlook;


namespace phone_message
{
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for Form1.
/// </summary>
///
public class OutlookMail
{
//private Outlook.Application oApp;
private Outlook.ApplicationClass oApp;
private Outlook._NameSpace oNameSpace;
private Outlook.MAPIFolder oOutboxFolder;


public OutlookMail()
{
oApp = new Outlook.ApplicationClass();
oNameSpace = oApp.GetNamespace(&quot;MAPI&quot;
oNameSpace.Logon(null,null,true,true);

//gets defaultfolder for my outlook Outbox
oOutboxFolder = oNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderOutbox);
}

}
public class Form1 : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
private System.Windows.Forms.Button button1;
private System.Windows.Forms.TextBox textBox1;
private System.Windows.Forms.Label label1;
private System.Windows.Forms.Label label2;
private System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox pictureBox1;
private System.Windows.Forms.Label label3;
private System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox comboBox1;
private System.Windows.Forms.TextBox textBox2;
private System.Windows.Forms.Button button2;
/// <summary>
/// Required designer variable.
/// </summary>
private System.ComponentModel.Container components = null;


public Form1()
{
//
// Required for Windows Form Designer support
//
InitializeComponent();

//
// TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call
//
}

/// <summary>
/// Clean up any resources being used.
/// </summary>
protected override void Dispose( bool disposing )
{
if( disposing )
{
if (components != null)
{
components.Dispose();
}
}
base.Dispose( disposing );
}

static void Main()
{
Application.Run(new Form1());
}

public void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// create a new MailItem object
Outlook.MailItem oMailItem = (Outlook.MailItem)oApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);

oMailItem.To = textBox1.Text;
oMailItem.Subject = textBox1.Text;
oMailItem.Body = textBox2.Text;

// save this in your draft
//oMailItem.SaveSentMessageFolder = oOutboxFolder;
//oMailItem.Save();

// add it to the outbox
oMailItem.Send();

mail.From = textBox1.Text;
mail.To = comboBox1.Text;
mail.Subject = &quot;Phone Message from: &quot; + textBox1.Text;
mail.Body = textBox2.Text;
SmtpMail.Send(mail);

MessageBox.Show(&quot;Message sent to &quot; + comboBox1.Text);*/

}
private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Application.Exit();
}

}
}


I work with Outlook 2000.

The error is here:
// create a new MailItem object
Outlook.MailItem oMailItem = (Outlook.MailItem)oApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);
----

Message:
The type or namespace name 'oApp' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Can someone help me?

Thanks,
Stephanie

Don't.....

You;re using a COM interface when there is a .NET class to do this....

Look up System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail in help.....it will do all you want without reliance on a particular client....
