Devity.NETCore.MailKit 2.2.2

NETCore.MailKit

MailKit extension to use with ASP.NET Core projects.

Original and why fork

The original version of this library has been created by myloveCc and can be accessed here.

I have been a user of this library for a few years. However, over the time as the library was not maintained, I managed to come across some bugs and I had to re-release the fixes myself for use on my own projects. Furthermore, the last push happened to be a vulnerability in the underyling MailKit library, so I decided to fork the project and continue maintaining it as it's still being used by thousands of projects.

Install with NuGet

Install-Package Devity.NETCore.MailKit

Install with .NET CLI

dotnet add package Devity.NETCore.MailKit

Usage

Add MailKit at start-up

builder.Services.AddMailKit(optionBuilder =>
{
    optionBuilder.UseMailKit(new MailKitOptions()
    {
        // get options from sercets.json
        Server = Configuration["Server"],
        Port = Convert.ToInt32(Configuration["Port"]),
        SenderName = Configuration["SenderName"],
        SenderEmail = Configuration["SenderEmail"],

        // can be optional with no authentication
        Account = Configuration["Account"],
        Password = Configuration["Password"],

        // enable ssl or tls
        Security = true
    });
});

Or

Program.cs

var mailKitOptions = builder.Configuration.GetSection("Email").Get<MailKitOptions>();
builder.Services.AddMailKit(config => config.UseMailKit(mailKitOptions));

secrets.json/appsettings.json:

{
  "Email": {
    "Server": "localhost",
    "Port": 25,
    "SenderName": "Test Name",
    "SenderEmail": "test@test.com"
    "Account": "username",
    "Password": "password",
    "Security": true
  }
}

Use EmailService like

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    private readonly IEmailService _emailService;

    public HomeController(IEmailService emailService)
    {
        _emailService = emailService;
    }

    public IActionResult Email()
    {
        ViewData["Message"] = "ASP.NET Core mvc send email example";

        _emailService.Send("xxxx@gmail.com", "ASP.NET Core mvc send email example", "Send from asp.net core mvc action");

        return View();
    }
}
