Load EML and Send

Demonstrates how to load an email from a .eml file and send. C#

bool success = false;

//  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

//  The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
Chilkat.MailMan mailman = new Chilkat.MailMan();

//  Set the SMTP server.
mailman.SmtpHost = "smtp.chilkatsoft.com";

//  Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
mailman.SmtpUsername = "myLogin";
mailman.SmtpPassword = "myPassword";

//  Create a new email object
Chilkat.Email email = new Chilkat.Email();

//  Load a .eml file into the email object.
success = email.LoadEml("/data/myEmail.eml");

//  Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server and send.
//  The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
//  open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the
//  same connection.  
success = mailman.SendEmail(email);
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Some SMTP servers do not actually send the email until 
//  the connection is closed.  In these cases, it is necessary to
//  call CloseSmtpConnection for the mail to be  sent.  
//  Most SMTP servers send the email immediately, and it is 
//  not required to close the connection.  We'll close it here
//  for the example:
success = mailman.CloseSmtpConnection();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine("Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.");
}

Debug.WriteLine("Mail Sent!");
