I want to send a text file as an attachment with email.When i run my code on local development server it runs properly and file gets attached.But when i publish the site on server,It doesnt pick the attachment and the mail is also not sent.Its not an issue of sending mails,bcoz i have checked it by sending mail without attachment,and the mail is sent.The problem is only while attaching file.i have written the path for text file attachment as

string filepath=@"E:\Pwavel\Attachfile\" + filename;
Attachment MyAttachment = new Attachment(filepath);
objmsg.Attachments.Add(MyAttachment);
I have also created "Pwavel" and "Attachfile" folders in E drive of server.
Is there a problem in path ? or any permission issue? i am not able to understand what the problem is..Please Help me...

Hello pwavell

use This Code

System.Net.Mail.Attachment mailatt = new Attachment(File);
            mail.Attachments.Add(mailatt);

Because
System.Web.Mail and System.Web.Mail Conflict Each Other

Happy Coding
