How to send mail using vb net code

Here is an example of how to send an email using VB.NET code:

Imports System.Net.Mail

Module SendEmail
    Sub Main()
        ' Create a new MailMessage object
        Dim mail As New MailMessage()

        ' Set the sender's email address
        mail.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]")

        ' Set the recipient's email address
        mail.To.Add("[email protected]")

        ' Set the subject of the email
        mail.Subject = "Test Email"

        ' Set the body of the email
        mail.Body = "This is a test email sent using VB.NET"

        ' Create a new SmtpClient object
        Dim client As New SmtpClient()

        ' Set the SMTP server's address
        client.Host = "smtp.example.com"

        ' Set the SMTP server's port
        client.Port = 587

        ' Set the SMTP server's username and password
        client.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("your_smtp_username", "your_smtp_password")

        ' Send the email
        client.Send(mail)
    End Sub
End Module

This code creates a new MailMessage object and sets its properties such as the sender's email address, recipient's email address, subject, and body. It then creates a new SmtpClient object and sets its properties such as the SMTP server's address, port, username, and password. Finally, it sends the email using the Send method.

You can also use the MailMessage class to send emails with attachments, HTML content, and more. Here is an example:

Imports System.Net.Mail

Module SendEmail
    Sub Main()
        ' Create a new MailMessage object
        Dim mail As New MailMessage()

        ' Set the sender's email address
        mail.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]")

        ' Set the recipient's email address
        mail.To.Add("[email protected]")

        ' Set the subject of the email
        mail.Subject = "Test Email with Attachment"

        ' Set the body of the email
        mail.Body = "This is a test email sent using VB.NET"

        ' Add an attachment to the email
        Dim attachment As New Attachment("C:\Path\To\Attachment.txt")
        mail.Attachments.Add(attachment)

        ' Create a new SmtpClient object
        Dim client As New SmtpClient()

        ' Set the SMTP server's address
        client.Host = "smtp.example.com"

        ' Set the SMTP server's port
        client.Port = 587

        ' Set the SMTP server's username and password
        client.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("your_smtp_username", "your_smtp_password")

        ' Send the email
        client.Send(mail)
    End Sub
End Module

This code adds an attachment to the email using the Attachment class and sends the email using the SmtpClient object.

You can also use the MailMessage class to send emails with HTML content, using the IsBodyHtml property:

Imports System.Net.Mail

Module SendEmail
    Sub Main()
        ' Create a new MailMessage object
        Dim mail As New MailMessage()

        ' Set the sender's email address
        mail.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]")

        ' Set the recipient's email address
        mail.To.Add("[email protected]")

        ' Set the subject of the email
        mail.Subject = "Test Email with HTML Content"

        ' Set the body of the email as HTML
        mail.IsBodyHtml = True
        mail.Body = "<html><body>This is a test email sent using VB.NET</body></html>"

        ' Create a new SmtpClient object
        Dim client As New SmtpClient()

        ' Set the SMTP server's address
        client.Host = "smtp.example.com"

        ' Set the SMTP server's port
        client.Port = 587

        ' Set the SMTP server's username and password
        client.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("your_smtp_username", "your_smtp_password")

        ' Send the email
        client.Send(mail)
    End Sub
End Module

This code sets the IsBodyHtml property to True and sets the body of the email as HTML content using the <html> and <body> tags.

Note that you need to replace the placeholders ([email protected], [email protected], smtp.example.com, your_smtp_username, and your_smtp_password) with your actual email address, recipient's email address, SMTP server's address, username, and password.
