Send Mail in SharePoint

Hi All,

In a following post we will see how to send mail by using SMTP in SharePoint.
As a Prerequisites SMTP needs to be Configured in your Server and Out going mail is need to be set in Central Administration.

public bool SendMail(BAL objCommon,

                            SPWeb oWeb)

        {

            bool result = false;

            string From=string.Empty;

            try

            {

                SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()

                {

                    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Convert.ToString(objCommon)))

                    {

                       // Reading From Email ID from the Central Administration Settings.

                        var message = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage

                        {

                            From = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(oWeb.Site.WebApplication.OutboundMailSenderAddress)

                        };

                       

                       // Reading To Emails from the Object and adding to the MailMessage                               object "message"

                        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Convert.ToString(objCommon.ToMailAddress)))

                        {

                            string toAddress = Convert.ToString(objCommon.ToMailAddress).TrimEnd(',');

                            string[] toArray = toAddress.Split(',');

                            foreach (string t in toArray)

                                message.To.Add(new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(t));

                        }

                       // Reading CC Emails from the Object and adding to the MailMessage                               object "message"

                        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Convert.ToString(objCommon.Cc)))

                        {

                            string[] ccArray = Convert.ToString(objCommon.Cc).Split(',');

                            foreach (string t in ccArray)

                            {

                                if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(t))

                                    message.CC.Add(new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(t));

                            }

                        }

                        //Reading Subject and Assigning to the Object

                        message.Subject = Convert.ToString(objCommon.MailSubject);

                        // Reading Mail body and assigning to the Object

                        message.Body = Convert.ToString(objCommon.MailBody);

                        message.IsBodyHtml = true;

                        var smtpClient = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient(Convert.ToString(oWeb.Site.WebApplication.OutboundMailServiceInstance.Server.Address))

                        {

                            UseDefaultCredentials = true

                        };

                        smtpClient.Send(message);

                        message.Dispose();

                        result = true;

                    }

                });

                return result;

            }

            catch (Exception ex)

            {

                //Exception Handling

            }

        }

NOTE: Above code is compiled and tested in both SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013 Environments.
