We were just asked to create something that would query a db and send an individual email to each email returned in the query.
how to do this.. and its not alot of emails.. probably about 50 to 100 but each email will be customized to each receipient as they are our vendors.
My code sends email via asp.net mail namespace. Basically I generate HTML code which carries an image tag referring to an image on server. It uses absolute path and then the html email is sent to recipients.
Now when they receive emails on gmail and other clients, it wouldnt display images and not that images are broken but it wouldnt get displayed. Gmail is an issue wherein it prompts of non-https message and then display link on top. I know how to get around but my recipients have no clue on this technical things. so they end up not seeing the images.
How can I resolve this issue? How can I ensure that they always receive images irrespective of their internet settings?
Here is my situation and hopefully someone could guide me in the right direction.I have a shared or static class in my website (App_Code folder) which has static methods to send emails asychronoulsy. So whenever there is an exception in any of my pages or classes I call these methods to send an email to support asynchronously. Now when there is an exception in a page, to route that exception asynchronously I need to have Async = "true" for that page. I have more than 50 pages and I don't want to set Async= "true" on every page as I read that it affects performance.So I was wondering if there is any way I could send emails asynchronously without having to set async = "true" on every page.
View 7 RepliesI'm having an issue sending large volumes of emails out from an ASP.Net application. I won't post the code, but instead explain what's going on. The code should send emails to 4000 recipients but seems to stall at 385/387.
The code creates the content for the email in a string.
It then selects a list of email address to send to.
Looping through the data via a datareader it picks out the email address and sends an email.
The email sending is done by a separate method which can handle failures and returns it's outcome.
As each record is sent I produce an XML node in an XML document to log each specific attempt to send.
The loop seems to end prematurely and the XML document is saved to disk.
Now I know the code works. I have run it locally using the same SMTP machine and it worked fine with 500 records. Granted there was less content, but I can't see how that would make any difference.
I don't think the page itself times out, but even if it did, I was sure .Net would continue processing the page, even if the user saw a page time out error.
Is there any samples on how to use ASP.NET built-in templates out of the page, just for rendering text with params. For instance, to build email message.
View 2 RepliesI am using the ASP.NET membership provider controls (ChangePassword and PasswordRecovery) and they generally work just fine. Unfortunately they don't send any emails once the process is finished. I set up the SMTP server using the ASP.NET Configuration Website and it added the following lines to the web.config:
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="maildaemon@pagetailors.de">
<network host="pagetailors.de" password="XXXX" userName="XXXX" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
I also tried using the IP adress of the server instead of the domain. In addition to that I set the maildefinition properties on the used web controls:
<MailDefinition From="maildaemon@pagetailors.de"
Subject="Your new password">
</MailDefinition>
Once I finish changing or resetting the password, the controls shows the success message. It does not show any errors but the mails are not sent. I also checked the SMTP log files on the server (it's a MailEnable server) but couldn't even find an attempt to send these messages. I am using a custom email helper class which manually sends an email using the following settings:
public static void SendEmail(string from, string to, string subject, string body)
{
SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient(ConfigReader.GetStringValue("MailServer"));
mailClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ConfigReader.GetStringValue("MailUsername"),
ConfigReader.GetStringValue("MailPassword"));
MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage(from, to, subject, body);
mailClient.Send(mailMessage);
}
The values for mailserver, username and password read from the config file are the same as defined in the ASP.NET configuration tool. These mails are delivered successfully.
I am writing an application that will need to send a massive amount of emails to our students who will be selected from our database (each email will be personalized to the extent that will include their name, course of study etc...so needs to be sent one at a time).
I could do this looping over an SmtpClient, but I'm afraid that with the numbers I'm trying to send, I'll ultimately run into timeout issues or my thread being killed because of lack of machine resources. if looping over SmtpClient is an ok solution, how I should go about handling it to prevent what I posted above.
i am developing a project wich sends massive amounts of emails. Lets say 200-300 emails per query. And each user can conduct multiple search querys. So at times it gets relly great number of emails to send.So this is what i need:1. a webservice with a fireAndForget type method, that i can pass in single or multiple email messages

View 13 RepliesI have a thread running in the background that will sleep and pull data from the database when something wakes it up. I am sending the emails using google apps using SmtpClient (code below).
I wanted to know if there is anything i be aware of? I plan to send only one email at a time (a registration or forgot password email). I am a little worried something can happen like an invalid email locking up the thread because i didnt set a timeout or maybe google apps happen to be done and causing the app to blow up. What should i be aware off? I should ask how i should test as well?

View 5 RepliesI am using gmail server settings to send emails for my asp.net website. Since there is a limitation on number of mails sent per day and limitations on sending to number of users, I cant use this service for long. Even If I use an idea to make sure I use multiple id's to send thousands of emails it will still not work.
I am taking care of all norms of subscribe and unsubscribe options, so that only registered users will receive mails.
I need to build a system which send mails accross thousands of emails * thousands of users per day. . I think this is possible, as emailers in twitter,facebook, orkut, linkeden work on same basis. Many of them use MailChimp Email Service.
But I am hosting my website on shared hosting (www.crystaltech.com) rather than dedicated server (Host Provider suggested me to go to dedicated server for my mail requirement). This host provider charges a lot to me if I include a dll, so I am not able to use dll. Is there any I can send bulk emails without using a dedicated server or dll.(Will use it in only in worst case scenario).My host providers said that they will be able to give service of sending only 800 mails per day. Are there any api providers for that. I have already checked with [URL]
I'm sending automatically emails when customers buy products on my ecommerce portal.
But, send pages by emails, at least in my server, using asp.net is too slow.
So, I want to send emails automattically, but using SERVER PROCESSING (Server Side). Did you get my point?
The customer won't see the sending process. But in background, directly on the server, the email is being sending.
