Mail function

Rebel · October 26th, 2007, 04:38 AM

Oke i'm now making a new topic for the search function

but the same question

on the webshop part 9
i want to send an email to the customer and to me.

for customers is in the add on
but to a fixed email adres not?

ive edited the email functions to the webpage
all the things

but the customer doesn't gets a email?
I've checked with a breakpoint
i've set a breakpoint here:
mySmtpClient.Send("[email protected]", emailAddress, theSubject, theMessage)

And when i debug it when i press the finalize order button it shows me that breakpoint

i'm not really sure what i did wrong?
is it maybe because of the email adres?

First, make sure that emailAddress contains a valid e-mail address.

Also, make sure your system is set up for sending e-mails. You either need an SMTP server on your local host (not recommended for security reasons) or need to configure a web server in the web.config file.

Cheers,

While typing this post, I was listening to: Spargi D'Amaro Pianto (Donizetti) by Maria Callas (Track 15 from the album: Maria Callas: The Voice Within the Heart) What's This?

Oke it works i'm feeling such a noobie now

just forgot to define the server.

i'm pretty sure this is a dumb mistake but i'm sending the .txt mail but in every program (hotmail/outlook) he only show the html (it all works though) but he doesn't show the layout?

i'm sorry but where do i put the IsBodyHtml tag?

i only have that in the global.asax file when a error is tossed.

It's a property of the MailMessage object that you need to set to True.

Can you post your code?

I allready have that set to true :S

      Dim mySmtpClient As SmtpClient = New SmtpClient()
            Dim myMessage As MailMessage = New MailMessage("[email protected]", "[email protected]", subject, errorMessage.ToString())
      myMessage.IsBodyHtml = True

      mySmtpClient.Send(myMessage)
    End If
  End Sub

Then it should work. Does errorMessage contain valid HTML? E.g. HTML you would normally place between the <body> tags?

I just have this in the Confirm Message:

Try removing the <body> tags, make sure IsBodyHtml is really set to True before you send the message, make sure your message really contains HTML (set a breakpoint to find out) and make sure you have an HTML compliant mail reader. AFAIK, when all four are true, you should see an HTML formatted message.

BTW: Besteld is with a d not a t.... ;)
