Sending E-Mail (.NET 2.0)

The System.Net.Mail namespace contains all the classes required for sending mail
from within a .NET application.

The SmtpClient class handles the actual sending of e-mail. For a simple mail,
you can directly pass in the To address, from, subject, and body of the mail to
one of the SmtpClient's overloaded send methods.

Client application:

private void btnSendMail_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MailService service = new MailService();
string from = "some@yahoo.com";
string to = "some@yahoo.com";
string subject = "Sending EMails from .NET 2.0";
string body = "Message Body";
service.SendMail(from, to, subject, body); ;
MessageBox.Show("Done");
}

Sending method:

public void SendMail(string from, string to,
string subject, string body)
{
string mailServerName = "yoursmtpserver";
try
{
//MailMessage represents the e-mail being sent
using (MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from,
to, subject, body))
{
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient();
mailClient.Host = mailServerName;
mailClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
mailClient.DeliveryMethod =
SmtpDeliveryMethod.PickupDirectoryFromIis;
//Send delivers the message to the mail server
mailClient.Send(message);
}
}
catch (SmtpException ex)
{
throw new ApplicationException
("SmtpException occurred: " + ex.Message);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
}

Asynchronous pages in C# - When to Use It?

When do we need asynchronous page in ASP.net. Suppose you have a website with two web pages. One is your home page which display's a greeting, and the second page displays a large dataset from a database. You have 25 threads in your thread pool. 25 people simultaneously are accessing the database query page, and one additional person comes onto the site to see the home page which has static content on it. http://davidjberman.com/blogs/csharp/archive/2007/08/13/how-to-create-asynchronous-asp-net-pages-using-c.aspx

Dynamic Data Error - "'DropDownList1' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because …"

During my first investigation of Dynamic Data Support at .NET 3.5 environment, I've found that even Microsoft has bug :-))) After the following great instructions of following screen-cast I've finished in few minutes with applications that allows me to maintain all my database tables. The problem is that already at third screen I've played with I got following error message: 'DropDownList1' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Fortunately, I'm not the first who is plying with Dynamic Data at .NET 3.5 so at this blog you can find fix and good explanation of this bug.
