  PROJECT DESCRIPTION
  The Report Viewers (Win and Web) do not support sending of reports via e-mail out-of-the-box. To mail a report you have to first render the report into a convenient format and then attach it to a mail message. Here is a possible way of how to achieve this by using the SmtpClient object:
  

  void MailReport(Telerik.Reporting.Report report, string from, string to, string subject, string body)

         {

             ReportProcessor reportProcessor = new ReportProcessor();

             RenderingResult result = reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", report, null);

   

             MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(result.DocumentBytes);

             ms.Position = 0;

   

             Attachment attachment = new Attachment(ms, report.Name + ".pdf");

             MailMessage msg = new MailMessage(from, to, subject, body);

             msg.Attachments.Add(attachment);

             //smtp host is the name or IP of the host computer used for sending the email

             string smtpHost = "255.255.255.0";

             SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(smtpHost);

             client.Send(msg);

         }

  You can find attached a sample project that shows the above code in action.
