    <p>I need to send lots of emails(probably hundreds a day) on schedule base. The way I'm thinking to do it is as follows but the problem is that my Body field can get very big, and if i add it as string it gets ugly. </p> <pre><code> SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(); //host and port picked from web.config client.EnableSsl = true; MailMessage message = new MailMessage(); message.Body = "test from winservice"; // HERE IS MY PROBLEM message.IsBodyHtml = true; message.From = new MailAddress("donotreply@abcde.com"); message.Subject = "My subject"; message.To.Add(new MailAddress("piniusha@abcde.com")); try { client.Send(message); } catch (Exception) { } </code></pre> <p>When i had to do it from aspx page i used</p> <pre><code> MailDefinition message = new MailDefinition(); message.BodyFileName = @"~\EmailTemplate\Template1.htm"; ListDictionary replacements = new ListDictionary(); replacements.Add("&lt;% Name %&gt;", this.txtName.Text); replacements.Add("&lt;% PhoneOrEmail %&gt;", this.txtPhoneOrEmail.Text); replacements.Add("&lt;% Message %&gt;", this.txtMessage.Text); MailMessage msgHtml = message.CreateMailMessage(RECIPIENTS, replacements, new LiteralControl()); </code></pre> <p>I think it is elegant solution but i don't want to reference to System.Web.UI.WebControls.MailDefinition because i'm in winservice.</p> <p>My questions are: </p> <ol> <li>What is the best way to send bulk emails from winservice? </li> <li>Is it posible to send it from gmail account? or they are going to block me after a while?</li> </ol> <p>thanks for any help. </p>

    1. COI believe GMail has a limit of 500 recipients in a 24 hr period. However, I would discourage the use of GMail for bulk email; it may violate their TOS.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
