Question

I have an e-mail template which is just a plain, static HTML page.

I need to get that page into the Body of a MailMessage.

Normally what I would do is just create a StringBuilder and append the lines over and over. But it’s kind of a long page, and I don’t want to go through replacing the quotes with single quotes etc..

So is there a way to just pull in the contents of an html page into a string? Such as:

emailMessage.IsBodyHtml     = true;
emailMessage.Subject        = "Test Subject";
emailMessage.Body           = GetContentsFrom("emailtemplate.html");

Thanks!

Could you replace GetContentsFrom with File.ReadAllText?
