Email uploaded file as attachment

[Brent]

Do you please have an example or instructions for how I can send the uploaded fiel as an attachment instead of just uploading it to a file on the server?

Thank you very much

Hello Brent,

I'm afraid this is out of the scope of the RadUpload control. I'd suggest you make a search on Google for possible solutions.

 So it works like a regular asp:FileUpload control then? I guess that was what I was getting at.

So it is not possible to do that?

            foreach (EmailAttachment attach in attachments)
            {
                Attachment attachFile = new Attachment(attachmentsPath + attach.fileName);
                mail.Attachments.Add(attachFile);

            }

//Here is the EmailAttacment class I used:
public class EmailAttachment
{

    public string fileName { get; set; }
    public string filePath { get; set; }
    public string attachmentURI { get; set; }
    public int fileSize { get; set; }

    public EmailAttachment()
    {

    }
}

//Here is the code I used upon submission of the form to load the generic list:
        List<EmailAttachment> attachments = new List<EmailAttachment>();

        for (int i = 0; i < ruAttachments.UploadedFiles.Count; i++)
        {
            EmailAttachment attachment = new EmailAttachment();
           attachment.filePath = attachmentsPath + ruAttachments.UploadedFiles[i].GetName();
           attachment.fileName = ruAttachments.UploadedFiles[i].GetName();
           attachments.Add(attachment);
        }

Hi Brent,

You can use the RadUpload tool to get the file names and then have them uploaded to a folder called "attachments". Then create a simple class called EmailAttachments and have it get - set a filename string. Then upon submission of your email form grab the file names from the RadUpload tool and store them in a generic list of EmailAttachment objects. Pass that to your email class and then add this code to add them to your email:

Thanks for posting these tips and code. I found that its also possible to take an in-memory file and pass that to the MailMessage without having to first save to disk (by using the UploadedFile.InputStream property):

aspx:

<telerik:RadUpload ID="RadUpload1" InitialFileInputsCount="1" MaxFileInputsCount="1" ControlObjectsVisibility="None" runat="server">
</telerik:RadUpload>

C# code-behind:

UploadedFile file = RadUpload1.UploadedFiles[0];
Attachment attachment = new Attachment(file.InputStream, file.FileName);
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.Attachments.Add(attachment);
