Question

Exactly how, and where, do I place the actual file location for the string attachmentPath:

public virtual MailMessage Welcome(string attachmentPath)
    {
        var mailMessage = new MailMessage{Subject = "Welcome to MvcMailer"};
        ...
        mailMessage.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(attachmentPath));
        PopulateBody(mailMessage, "Welcome");
        return mailMessage;
    }

Presume a physical file location on the server of c:\inetpub\server\website\docs\test.pdf

Answer 1

Just replace attachmentPath with @”c:\inetpub\server\website\docs\test.pdf” like this:

Change attachmentPath

mailMessage.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(attachmentPath));

to @”c:\inetpub\server\website\docs\test.pdf”

mailMessage.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(@"c:\inetpub\server\website\docs\test.pdf"));
