yes i am having my default server to there i will be semding mail from my controls like textbox texta and fileupoadcontrols file..now after sending mail to that server it will automatically send to the users who needs that mail ..

Please follow this link. It will help you lot.

http://www.aspsnippets.com/articles/Attach-files-to-email-without-storing-on-disk-using-ASP.Net-FileUpload-Control.aspx[^]

Or take a look at this ,
 Here’ I’ll explain how to attach files to email without saving them on the disk

You can refer my articles on how to send emails in

Send SMTP Emails using System.Net Class in C#   and Send SMTP Emails using System.Net Class in VB.Net

When the File is uploaded using FileUpload Control the file is received in the httppostedfile

property.

To attach the HttpPostedFile  to the email. You will need to convert it to Stream.

The code below attaches a posted file to email. Note that txtAttachment is  a FileUpload control

<asp:FileUpload ID="txtAttachment" runat="server" />

C#

if (txtAttachment.PostedFile != null)

{

    try

    {

        string strFileName =

        System.IO.Path.GetFileName(txtAttachment.PostedFile.FileName);

        Attachment attachFile =

        new Attachment(txtAttachment.PostedFile.InputStream, strFileName);

        mm.Attachments.Add(attachFile);

    }

    catch

    {

 

    }

}

HI bhavesh it is showing file not found at that link
BK 4 code 26-Dec-13 0:26am    
Please see my updated solution
Two Situations

1. You are running your website in Host.

2. You are running your website in Another machine(Client).


1.

Using different browsers you will get problem

(suppose chrome displays only filename insted of path.)


2.

eg: In your client machine filepath (C:\asdf.txt)
server you may not contain C:\asdf.txt file.


Solution:
Better thing upload file into Server.
and send from that path.
delete file after sent email.

(suggesition use different program for delete).

Copy file to server.
Attach to mail.
Send mail.
Delete file after sending.
use namespaces
C#
using System.Net.Mime;
using System.Text;
using System.Net.Mail;
using System;


and method

private Boolean SendMailUsingGmail(String mailTo, String mailText, String attachmentFileWithPath)
 {
     Boolean sendMailResult;
     try
     {
         SmtpClient smtpServer = new SmtpClient();
         smtpServer.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(mailFromId, mailFromPassword);
         smtpServer.Port = 25;
         smtpServer.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
         MailMessage sampleMail = new MailMessage();
         sampleMail.From = new MailAddress(mailFromId);
         sampleMail.Subject = "Mail";
         string file = attachmentFileWithPath; //file path
         Attachment data = new Attachment(file, MediaTypeNames.Application.Zip);
         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.
         sampleMail.Attachments.Add(data);
         sampleMail.To.Add(mailTo);
         sampleMail.Body = mailText;
         smtpServer.Send(sampleMail);
         sendMailResult = true;
         return sendMailResult;
     }
     catch (Exception ex)
     {
         string exceptionString = ex.Message;
         sendMailResult = false;
         return sendMailResult;
     }
     finally
     {
     }

 }
