Email (!) a file from Editor Script (likely using .Net)

Questions & Answers
1

I unfortunately know nothing about Editor script … say I have a file at

Application.dataPath+"/happy.html"

(perhaps having been writing it like this … File.CreateText(Application.dataPath+“/happy.html” )

I simply want to email that file (ideally as an attachment) to allMyFriends@internet.com

Or even just send an email, and I’ll put the text in the body.

I bet, there is a super-easy way to do this with something in “.Net” … which I amazes me daily, since Bunny told me about it :open_mouth:

I think this should help: :wink:

Always keep in mind that you have the whole .NET framework available in Unity, especially in the editor.

This might also be helpful:

using System.Net;
using System.Net.Mail;

public void email_send()
{
    MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
    SmtpClient SmtpServer = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");
    mail.From = new MailAddress("your mail@gmail.com");
    mail.To.Add("to_mail@gmail.com");
    mail.Subject = "Test Mail - 1";
    mail.Body = "mail with attachment";
    
    System.Net.Mail.Attachment attachment;
    attachment = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment("c:/textfile.txt");
    mail.Attachments.Add(attachment);
    
    SmtpServer.Port = 587;
    SmtpServer.Credentials =
        new System.Net.NetworkCredential("ur mail@gmail.com", "ur password");
    SmtpServer.EnableSsl = true;
    
    SmtpServer.Send(mail);
    // consider, wrap MailMessage, SmtpClient with
    // using to ensure disposed correctly
}

Might be some .Net classes that can do this, but I’d open a socket to your mail host on port 25, and talk smtp. This is a trivial text-based protocol for sending emails. The complication might be authentication. I use authsmtp.com for some emailing applications I have (so the code I use actually uses port 2525.)
