Answer 1

you can use this...

    public void SendEmail(string address, string subject, string message)
    {
        string email = "-your-id-@gmail.com";
        string password = "put-your-GMAIL-password-here";

        var loginInfo = new NetworkCredential(email, password);
        var msg = new MailMessage();
        var smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587);

        msg.From = new MailAddress(email);
        msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(address));
        msg.Subject = subject;
        msg.Body = message;
        msg.IsBodyHtml = true;

        smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
        smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
        smtpClient.Credentials = loginInfo;
        smtpClient.Send(msg);
    }

Have a look at MvcMailer

MvcMailer provides you with an ActionMailer style email sending NuGet Package for ASP.NET MVC 3/4. So, you can produce professional looking emails composed of your MVC master pages and views with ViewBag.
