Sending email with html body true having image using wcf service
Question
I am working on an application in MVC 4.0 dot net.When user first time visit the application a mail is sent to the user.For sending the mail i am using the WCF mail service implemented in our company.
I have created a .txt file having the HTML for mail format
this is the code I am using for sending the mail
public void SendWelcomeMail(string name, string email, string filePath)
{
try
{
string subject = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["WelcomeMailSub"];
string supportMail = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["supportMail"];
using (StreamReader reader = File.OpenText(filePath))
{
string text = reader.ReadToEnd();
text = string.Format(text, name);
Mail mails = new Mail { MailTo = "suresh.negi89@gmail.com", Msg = text, Subject = subject, IsBodyHtml = true };
MailSenderServiceClient oClient = new MailSenderServiceClient();
oClient.SendMail(mails);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new Exception(ex.Message);
}
}
This is the file having the HTML format:
<html>
<body><
<div style="height:40px;width:675px;background:#000; text-align:center;color:red;">
<img src="~/Content/logo.png" alt="DTD" style="float:left">
<h1> {0} Congrates you are registered as a prime user!! </h1>
</div>
<p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
Hi, Welcome to you
</p>
</body>
</html>

When mail is sent no image is displayed.I want to know where I am doing mistake.

Where do you expect ~/Content/logo.png to point to on the recipient's machine?
99% of the time it will point nowhere, and the other 1% won't be the file you wanted anyway.
Three solutions:
Host your image on a public server and reference it with the full absolute URL (it's probably already there?). This is basically the de facto standard now.
<img src="http://www.example.com/logo.png" />If this location changes, you can of course use a placeholder and resolve the URL at runtime, before sending the email.
Attach the image to the email. You can then reference it inline with
cid:.<img src="cid:logo.png" />Use a data URI and inline the data:
<img src="data:image/x-icon,%00%00%01%00%01%00%10%10%00%00%01%00%20%00h%04%00%00%16%00%00%00(%00%00%00%10%00%00%00%20%00%00%00%01%00%20%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%13%0B%00%00%13%0B%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00Tx%9B%14Ox%A0%3CJx%A4dDx%AA%91Lx%A2%19llm%FFllm%FF%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00Kx%A3%0F%3Cx%B1R%3Ex%B0%84%3Ex%B0%B9%3Ex%B0%DE%3Ex%B0%FF%3Fx%AF%FFAw%AD%FFBv%AB%FFDw%A9%3E%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%3Dx%B0*Ax%AD%FFAx%AD%FFAx%AD%FFBw%AB%ECEv%A9%C0Cw%AB%85%3B%7B%B3T*%83%C5R%15%8D%DCY%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%3Fx%AF%09Bx%ACsDv%AAQDv%AA%2B%3B%7B%B3%08%00%00%00%00%18%8C%D9%0C%09%93%E8r%03%97%EF%E2%02%97%EE%FF%00%99%F2%1B%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%09%93%E8%19%03%97%EE%82%03%96%EE%ED%05%95%EC%FF%04%97%EB%EC%09%91%EA%82%1Dx%E6N%20r%E9%02%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%0F%91%E1%02%02%97%EE%24%03%97%EE%86%05%96%EC%F3%06%95%EB%FF%06%95%EB%EB%04%98%EB%83%0D%8C%E9%10'm%E5L%2Fc%E4%FC.d%E4%81%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%04%96%ED%09%06%95%EB%D5%06%95%EB%FF%06%95%EB%E9%06%96%EB%7C%04%98%EB%17%00%00%00%00%2Bg%E46.d%E4%F8%2Cf%E4%F8%2Cf%E4D%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%06%95%EBl%06%95%EB~%05%96%EB%15%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00-d%E4%22-e%E4%E5%2Cf%E4%FF%2Cf%E4X%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00.c%E4%0F%2Ce%E4%CB%2Cf%E4%FF%2Cf%E4%7B%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00.c%E4%02%2Cf%E4%AD%2Cf%E4%FF%2Cf%E4%A1%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00.d%E4%02%2Cf%E4%93%2Cf%E4%FF%2Cf%E4%C0%2Cf%E4%07%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%00%80%01%00%00%80%01%F0%BF%9F%F9%00%00%90%09%00%00%90%09%00%00%9F%01%00%00%E0%07%00%00%E0%07%00%00%E0%83%00%00%FE%01%00%00%F0%01%00%00%F0!%00%00%F8%C3%FF%FF%FF%87%FF%FF%FF%0F%00%00%FE%0F%00%00" />You can use the data: URI Kitchen to create one like this, or just use base64 as per the spec .
