How to check asp.net email

Question

I have a code in my asp.net that sends an email:

public void SendEmail(string message)
{
    var body = message;

    var email = new MailMessage(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SenderEmail"],
                            ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["RecipientEmail"],
                            "Email Test", body);

    var client = new SmtpClient();
    client.Host = Properties.Settings.Default.smtp;
    client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
    client.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;

    client.Send(email);
}

I want to know how to check this. Whether this is a unit test or an integration test, I really don't care. I do not want to scoff at it. I actually want to write a test that the letter is sent with the correct message.

Can anyone help me with this?

Answer 1

Just create a folder called "maildrop" on your c: / drive and use the following in the Web.config file:

<mailSettings>
    <smtp deliveryMethod='SpecifiedPickupDirectory'>
        <specifiedPickupDirectory pickupDirectoryLocation="c:\maildrop" />
    </smtp>
</mailSettings>

By default, I think it will just work with your code unchanged, since it listens on your local host.

When sending emails you will get a good taskbar notification popup ... just click on the notification to see the actual contents of the email.
