create static class and then add this method to in it and just pass the parameters from your page..

create folder attachment in solution explorer and then

uploaded

attachment using file upload control save in that folder..

Email em = new Email();

FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/Attachment/") + FileUpload1.FileName);

em.mail("smtp.gmail.com","xyz@gmail.com","password","aa@aa.com","body msg","subject","attachment name");

public void mail(string host, string fromaddress, string password, string toaddress, string body, string subject5, string attach)
    {
        SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
        MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
        Attachment ament;
        try
        {
            smtp.Host = host;
            smtp.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(fromaddress, password);
           
            msg.From = new MailAddress(fromaddress, fromaddress);
           
            msg.To.Add(toaddress);
           
            if (attach != "")
            {
               
                string path = Server.MapPath("~/Attachment/") + attach;
                ament = new Attachment(path);
                msg.Attachments.Add(ament);
            }
            msg.Subject = subject5;
         
            msg.IsBodyHtml = true;
            msg.Body = body;
            smtp.Send(msg);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Session["Mailerror"] = ex.Message;
        }
    }

Did you bother Googling for this? It's only been documented a couple of hundred thousand times! Google for "C# send email with attachments".

hello dave here my requirement is that i nned to send the mail with adding file as attachment that is the problem for me as there is no server pathfor me to upload the file....i need to send the mail along with the attachment... i googled it but not found what i am looking for

I already told you want to Google for. You're not doing anything special. You don't need a server to upload the file to before sending the attachment. I don't know where you got that idea from, but it's very wrong.

sending mail with attachment is very easy but it will take little time to understand if you are doing it first time there are lot help available on Google.

MailMessage mm = new MailMessage("abc@xyz.com")
{
Subject="",
Body =""
} ;
mm.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(memoryStream, "Attacment.pdf"));
SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["HostName"].ToString(), 25);
mailClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
mailClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
mailClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SenderId"].ToString(), ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SenderPwd"].ToString());

mailClient.Send(mm);

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
System.Net.Mail.Attachment attachment;
attachment = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment(filePath);
