email attachment from string

[=?iso-8859-2?Q?Piotr_W=F3jcicki?=]

Is there any way of sending email with attachment created from string ? I dont want to save this string as Text file on hard drive.

Thank you

I had a similair issue.

The way i got around it, was by first creating a file on the server.
Attaching that file to the email and sending it,
and then finally deleting the file from the server.

Hope that helps

It creates lots of problems cause the attachment needs to have fixed name, same for every session.
How to avoid filenames conflicts ?
Where to write files ? ( I want to run it on Windows 2003 server)

Piotr,

A attachment is forever a file however not that I ever tried it, but maybe
you can do something with the memorystream?

Give the file a Guid as a name, that should resolve any potential name
conflicts. Try using isolated storage for your file (if it works for ASP)

How do i change Attachmets name to fixed name after creating if from file named with guid ?

Attachment.Filename property is read only.

I guess that sort of rules out naming the file after a guid. You could
create a folder named after the session id, or a guid (overkill), and put
the uploaded file there. Then at least you have isolated the users from
each other and don't have the same concurrency problem. From here it will
be a simple matter of checking if the user already has uploaded a file with
the same name and use some naming conventions for duplicates.
