I'm trying to send an email everytime the user creates a new comment. I've already installed the package Postal.MVC5
Comment Model
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required]
[MinLength(3)]
[MaxLength(20)]
public string Asunto { get; set; }
[Required]
public string Detalle { get; set; }
[DataType(DataType.Date)]
public DateTime Fecha { get; set; }
[DataType(DataType.Time)]
public DateTime Hora { get; set; }
public virtual Local local { get; set; }
public virtual string username { get; set; }
NewCommentEmail Model
public class NewCommentEmail : Email
{
public string To { get; set; }
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string Comment { get; set; }
}
Controller
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AgregarComentario(NotasAdjuntas nota)
{
try
{
var localId = int.Parse(Request["LocalID"]);
nota.username = Session["Username"].ToString();
using (var db = new AutoContex())
{
nota.local = db.Locales.Find(localId);
db.Entry(nota.local).Reference(p => p.Proveedor).Load();
db.Notas.Add(nota);
db.SaveChanges();
}
var email = new NewCommentEmail();
email.To = "emilia.lasaga@pedidosya.com";
email.UserName = nota.username;
email.Comment = nota.Asunto;
email.Send();
return RedirectToAction("Details", new { @id = localId });
}
catch
{
return View();
}
}
I've also added this to the webconfig
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="SpecifiedPickupDirectory">
<specifiedPickupDirectory pickupDirectoryLocation="C:\Temp\" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
The error I'm getting is: Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.RuntimeBinderException:Couldn't make connection on time of execution in a NULL reference
The line that is getting the error is:

I was able send the email through smtps
It wasn't the frist approach I was looking for (I wanted to do it through Postal.MVC5)
What I did was this:
New Class to create the email
using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Net;
namespace AutoPlanMCV.Models
{
public class NewCommentEmail
{
public static string GmailUsername { get; set; }
public static string GmailPassword { get; set; }
public static string GmailHost { get; set; }
public static int GmailPort { get; set; }
public static bool GmailSSL { get; set; }
public string ToEmail { get; set; }
public string Subject { get; set; }
public string Body { get; set; }
public bool IsHtml { get; set; }
static NewCommentEmail()
{
GmailHost = "smtp.gmail.com";
GmailPort = 25; // Gmail can use ports 25, 465 & 587; but must be 25 for medium trust environment.
GmailSSL = true;
}
public void Send()
{
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
smtp.Host = GmailHost;
smtp.Port = GmailPort;
smtp.EnableSsl = GmailSSL;
smtp.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(GmailUsername, GmailPassword);
using (var message = new MailMessage(GmailUsername, ToEmail))
{
message.Subject = Subject;
message.Body = Body;
message.IsBodyHtml = IsHtml;
smtp.Send(message);
}
}
}
Controller
public ActionResult AgregarComentario(NotasAdjuntas nota)
{
try
{
var localId = int.Parse(Request["LocalID"]);
nota.username = Session["Username"].ToString();
using (var db = new AutoContex())
{
nota.local = db.Locales.Find(localId);
db.Entry(nota.local).Reference(p => p.Proveedor).Load();
db.Notas.Add(nota);
db.SaveChanges();
if (nota.Asunto.Contains("capa"))
{
NewCommentEmail.GmailUsername = "youremail@gmail.com";
NewCommentEmail.GmailPassword = "yourpassword";
NewCommentEmail mailer = new NewCommentEmail();
mailer.ToEmail = "Emailto@gmail.com";
mailer.Subject = nota.Asunto;
mailer.Body = nota.local.NuevoId + " -- --" + nota.local.NombreComercio + "<br />" + nota.Detalle + "<br /> Hora:" + nota.Hora;
mailer.IsHtml = true;
mailer.Send();
}
}
return RedirectToAction("Details", new { @id = localId });
}
catch
{
return View();
}
}
I removed what I had in the webconfig, and I didn't edit my view. I didn't receive any errors after that
