sending e-mail using the default e-mail-client

matze_neuruppin

Hi everyone, I wanna send an e-mail by using the systems default client. I do it this way and it works: string sMessage=string.Format("mailto:{0}?subject={1}&body={2}",sEmailAdress,sSubject, sBody); Process.Start(sMessage); Now I wanna create new lines in the text of the body but the standard instructions of c# like '\n\r' are simply ignored by the e-mail-client. I also tried html-tags, but it doesn`t work, too. Can anyone help me?? Thanks a lot

well when you send an email with smptmail class, it uses the windows default mail server. the system.web.mail namespace has a class which encapsulates the subject, body, ect... for you. try playing around with some of the classes to see if it satisfies you.
