I\'m using the following code from this answer Sending email in .NET through Gmail. The trouble I\'m having is adding an attachment to the email. How would I add an attachme

Answer 1

The message object created from your new MailMessage method call has a property .Attachments.

For example:

message.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(PathToAttachment));

Answer 2

Using the Attachment class as proposed in the MSDN:

// Create  the file attachment for this e-mail message.
Attachment data = new Attachment(file, MediaTypeNames.Application.Octet);
// Add time stamp information for the file.
ContentDisposition disposition = data.ContentDisposition;
disposition.CreationDate = System.IO.File.GetCreationTime(file);
disposition.ModificationDate = System.IO.File.GetLastWriteTime(file);
disposition.ReadDate = System.IO.File.GetLastAccessTime(file);
// Add the file attachment to this e-mail message.
message.Attachments.Add(data);

Answer 3

A one line answer:

mail.Attachments.Add(new System.Net.Mail.Attachment("pathToAttachment"));

Answer 4

Correct your code like this

System.Net.Mail.Attachment attachment;
attachment = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment("your attachment file");
mail.Attachments.Add(attachment);
