The code snippet below shows you how to create an e-mail message and add an image from local disk as a LinkedResource object with ComponentSoft Mail library:

C#

// Create a new instance of the MailMessage class. MailMessage msg = new MailMessage(); // Add from address. msg.From.Add("fromemail@domain.com"); // Add recipient. msg.To.Add("fromemail@domain.com"); // Set subject. msg.Subject = "MHT message"; // ImageTypeName's src is linked to an embedded image. msg.BodyHtml = "Below is an attached image:<br><img src='cid:myimage'>"; // Create a LinkedResource object. LinkedResource lr = new LinkedResource("c:\\myfolder\\myimage.jpg", ImageTypeNames.Jpeg); lr.ContentIdentifier = "myimage"; msg.LinkedResources.Add(lr); // Connect, login and send the message here. // the following code demonstrates how to do that: //  SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(); //  client.Connect("servername"); //  client.Authenticate("username", "password"); //  client.Send(msg); //  client.Disconnect(); // ...
