How do I go about sending a multipart message which includes both the text and the html formatted email?

Comment on ActionMailer.Net: Email Templates for the MVC Crowd by Scott Anderson

Standalone doesn’t use an MVC project to render views, which also means that things like the @model keyword do not work. These are extensions that were bundled on top of the Razor core by the MVC team. The unfortunate downside is that IntelliSense will be broken for standalone Razor views. There’s really not a way to fix it that I know of.

As far as passing models, it’s the same as in MVC. Just:

return Email(“ViewName”, modelObject);

And then you’ll have access to a @Model property within your views. You won’t have IntelliSense, but as long as you type the property names correctly, everything should work.

Scott,

Another question about standalone. On the view, is there a way to allow for the model to be visible to intellisense? I’m writing a console application to send emails as reminders but i’m having problems passing data to the view (static html emails) are ok.

Do you have a simple example of this you can post for download?

Thanks again!

1) Display name can be set simply by doing something like the following:

To.Add(“John Doe “);

2) All you need to do is place the InlineCSS call in your HTML view, however the CSS file needs to be attached to the email. I’m not really certain how helpful this method is, because I think CSS scripts shouldn’t really be attached, but basically you just need to attach the CSS file with a certain name, and then use the InlineCSS method with that same name to generate the appropriate link tag.

Cheers!
Scott

Thanks for creating ActionMailer. A couple of requests:1) Having a display name on the To address is helpful. This way you can have a friendly name for the sender like the System.NetMail.MailAddress.DisplayName http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.mail.mailaddress.displayname.aspx
2) I could not get InlineCSS to work, a working example with a basic MVC app would be great.Thanks!

Thanks for creating ActionMailer. A couple of requests:
1) Having a display name on the To address is helpful (so people don’t recognize)
2) I could not get InlineCSS to work, a working example with a basic MVC app would be great.

Thanks!
