How to send Email with HTML formatting to Windows Phone C#

Question

Hello, Visual Studio 2012 has Emailcomposetask Object, but it does not have HTML formatting, I would like to know how to send emails via Windows Phone with HTML Formatting.

Answer 1

According to that answer and the description of the property Emailcomposetask.Body on MSDN:

The Body Property does not support HTML formatting.

There’s no way.

However you can use this component (paid): http://geekchamp.com/marketplace/components/livemailmessage

See an alternative solution (on the first link): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19030764/send-html-content-via-emailcomposetask Here a screenshot of the component that allows including attachment.

Implementation example:

//create a new MailMessage object
MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage();
//set a Live/Hotmail or Gmail, or a custom SMTP account
mailMessage.UserName= "*****@hotmail.com ;                        // ****@gmail.com, ****@yourserver.com, etc.
mailMessage.Password = "********";
mailMessage.AccountType = accountType.MicrosoftAccount;   //you can set your  CustomSMTP server/port/no-ssl
mailMessage.From = "[email protected]";
//set mail data
mailMessage.To = "[email protected]";
mailMessage.ReplyTo = "[email protected]";
mailMessage.Cc= "[email protected];[email protected];[email protected]";
mailMessage.Bcc= "[email protected];[email protected];[email protected]";
mailMessage.Subject = "Hello from WP";
mailMessage.Body = "I can send any type of attachment from my app now !!";   **//text or HTML**
//attach ANY KIND of file from a resource or IsolatedStorage path
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\resources\file.jpg"); 
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\docs\file.pdf"); 
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\docs\file.xls");
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\rex\file.wav");
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\myFolder\file.mp3"); 
mailMessage.AddAttachment("\downloads\file.mp4"); 

//attach from in-memory data:
mailMessage.AddAttachment(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("yesssss".ToCharArray()), "memoryfile.txt");
//set message event handlers
mailMessage.Error +=  mailMessage_Error; 
mailMessage.MailSent += mailMessage_MailSent; 
mailMessage.Progress += mailMessage_Progress;  
//send email (async)
mailMessage.SendMail();
