How to send Email in Asp.Net MVC

Using smtp:

WebConfig:

                     port="587"
               userName="[email protected]"
               password="your-password"
               enableSsl="true" />

Model:

public class EmailModel
{
public string FromName { get; set; }
public string FromEmail { get; set; }
public HttpPostedFileBase Attachment { get; set; }
public string Subject { get; set; }
public string Message { get; set; }
}

Controller:

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task Contact(EmailModel model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
var body = "
Email From: {0} ({1})
Message:
{2}
";
var message = new MailMessage();
message.To.Add(new MailAddress("[email protected]"));
message.Subject = model.Subject;
message.Body = string.Format(body, model.FromName, model.FromEmail, model.Message);
if (model.Attachment.ContentLength > 0)
{
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(model.Attachment.FileName);
message.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(model.Attachment.InputStream, fileName));
}
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
using (var smtp = new SmtpClient())
{
await smtp.SendMailAsync(message);
return RedirectToAction("Sent");
}
}
return View(model);
}

Using SendGrid:

public class EmailModel
{
public string ToMail { get; set; }
public string Subject { get; set; }
public string Body { get; set; }
public string Password { get; set; }
}
private async Task configSendGridasyncAsync(EmailMessage message)
{
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.sendgrid.net");
var password = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SendGridPassword");
var user = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SendGridUser");
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user, password);
var mailMessage = new MailMessage();
mailMessage.From = new MailAddress("[email protected]", "Hello, Good Morning"); ;
mailMessage.To.Add(message.ToMail);
mailMessage.Subject = message.Subject;
mailMessage.Body = message.Body;
mailMessage.IsBodyHtml = true;
await client.SendMailAsync(mailMessage);
await Task.FromResult(0);
}
