I'm building a web application that sends emails throw SmtpClient
in .net the application is working fine, emails sent successfully to gmail accounts and hotmail accounts, however when I sent emails to yahoo account it delivered successfully, but the links I put in the message is disabled by yahoo. yahoo somehow rewrites the links and totally remove the "href" property, I dunno what to do, I've tried every format i know but it was no good.
here is the code that I use to send messages.
objEmail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
objEmail.To.Add(new MailAddress(contact.Value.ToString(),null));
objEmail.From = new MailAddress(from, null);
objEmail.Subject = subject;
objEmail.Body = Body;
objEmail.IsBodyHtml = true;
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Send(objEmail);
and here is the definition of the smtpclient in the web.config file
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
<network enableSsl="true" host="smtp.gmail.com" password="password" userName="[email protected]" port="587"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
in the message body I put a simple link like that,
<a href="http://www.postagi.com/HomePage.aspx?id=101">tester</a>
here is what yahoo show in there email inbox.
<a id="yui_3_2_0_1_1327400481004292" rel="nofollow">tester</a>
this error really drives me crazy, please help.
I just solved it... it seems that i must write the complete link with the 'http://' I dunno why only yahoo needs this format. it was working fine with gmail and hotmail, but in the end I'm glad that I was able to solve it
