i filenotfound exception save attachment first, send email, go , delete it, wondering if there way avoid having that. remember in webforms possible using fileupload control , system.net.mail's attachments system. suggestions? thanks!

the source system.web.helpers.webmail.cs

it looks helper method supports file paths.

you'll have use mailmessage , smtpclient directly if want able send attachments file in memory.

message.attachments.add(new attachment(postedfile.stream, postedfile.name, postedfile.contenttype));
