How can we add a web page or a Windows Forms to the Outlook mail so that when I send a mail to a person he/she should be able to enter the data in the controls on the mail form? The user should also have the ability to save the data directly from the mail, instead of opening my web or a Windows application and update the data.
View 1 RepliesAnyone who has any idea on whether i can load a webform in the outlook, your insights are required. Till now a link was provided in the mail which the customers click to go to the form.But is is possible to load the webform directly in outlook 2003.

I have a requirement in my asp.net web application, to send emails that are marked as "Follow up" with the "Reply By" property set. I was able to set both these parameters as explained in the article below:
http://www.asp101.com/tips/index.asp?id=142
And the Outlook is showing the email as "Flagged" with the reply by time as set in the code. But the problem is that the outlook doesn't show any alert as the "reply by" time approaches.
This alert appears properly when any "Flagged" email is sent from microsoft outlook, so I am not sure why the emails sent from the web application dont' show the alert?
I have an asp.net / C# page which takes a comment, and then emails that comment. Sometimes when the user enters "&" in the comment, the comment is being truncated. So for example if the comment is "test & test" the email only sends out "test ".
I have tried HttpUtility.HtmlEncode - but it looks like the issue is on the outlook side and not on the C# side.
I have a web page, that has lists of documents for a user to look at. I have the page working to allow a user to view any of the documents when they click the link. The only thing that wont work is a document that is .msg format for Outlook emails. I did some research and found that in order to get Outlook to open the document when opening a .msg document, you have to add the MIMEType application/vnd.ms-outlook to the list of MIMETypes that IIS will accept. I gave this a shot but still couldn't get it working.
Then what I tried was to output the MIMEType associated with a .msg when I was Saving the document so I could see what it was using. When I did this I got "application/octet-steam" So then I set the .msg extention to use octet stream. This allowed the document to be open, but used Notepad which then had really messed up formatting because of the email headers etc.
Does anyone know how I might get outlook to open up and show the email when a user clicks to view that document as opposed to Notepad?
I am working on an ASP.NET project where we are updating all of our websites to support Unicode values. In one place, we are allowing users to enter their email address as Unicode. I use the following code snippet to display the "mailto" address hyperlink:
Response.Write("<a href='mailto:" + Server.UrlEncode(email.EmailAddress) + "'>" + email.EmailAddress + "</a>");
When I click on this link, it opens Outlook, but the email address displays as garbage text. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?From what I have heard, currently, email addresses only support ANSII characters, but Unicode characters are coming; That is why we are taking this step.

View 3 Repliesa couple weeks ago, my ASP.NET website stopped sending user comments which I implemented by emailing those comments to my email account through Gmail SMTP server [URL]. I opened the project on my development machine and again it fails to send the email after a couple minutes with the following exception message:
Failure sending mail
Unable to read data from the transport connection: net_io_connectionclosed.
I'm using Gmail's SMTP with port 465, and MailClient.EnableSSL = True.
The weird thing is my Office Outlook 2007 is using the same settings and it doesn't have any problems sending mail using the same Gmail account.

View 4 RepliesI have this in my HTML email to track if someone views the email in say Outlook.

but this doesn't seem to work.Should I change my headers in the .ashx to server image headers? Can this work using this method?
I emailed myself with an email, other images displayed properly. There was no log in the database for the handler (the handler logs all requests to the db). Calling the URL to the file in the browser logs to the db, so its working.
I am trying to send an email from our web server to a gmail account via System.Net.Mail but am failing miserably receiving this error message:
Mailbox name not allowed. The server response was:
that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1) Using this code I am able to send emails to other email addresses on our Outlook email server:
[Code]....
So I know I am capable of sending email to Gmail with port 587 and using the proper credentials of my own Gmail account. That is not the problem.
The problem is I want to be able to have the mail sent from my application from whatever the user puts in the FROM (Email address): text box to a Gmail account. When I use the above code, the address that the email is sent from is my own.
So the question is: Is there any way to configure this to be able to send from an Outlook email server to a Gmail account without having to use my Gmail account to actually do it (using my credientials). Therefore showing the email as sent from whatever the user puts in the txtEmail text box, and having it sent from the Outlook server?
I know my SMTP uses the port 25 for outgoing mail and I am pretty sure that the Gmail settings block port 25 for incoming mail, which makes sense, but what doesnt make sense is I can compose a message in Outlook and send it to a gmail account, but I cannot automate this through my programming, which makes me feel certain its my programming.
