                    smtpClient.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
                else
                    smtpClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(emailAccount.Username, emailAccount.Password);                
                string Gid = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
                string pdfcreateandpath = conversionsavepath + Gid + ".pdf";
                bool flag = createpdf(contentconversion, conversionsavepath, pdfcreateandpath);
                if (flag)
                {
                    //
                    LogMessage(" pdf created is  : " + flag);

                    if (System.IO.File.Exists(pdfcreateandpath))
                    {

                          LogMessage(" pdf file path exists is  : " +                                                System.IO.File.Exists(pdfcreateandpath));

Mails sent from code can go to spam for various reasons

  1. If your server IP is black listed
  2. If you are sending files of huge size or of certain types
  3. If your mail content contains certain words
  4. if user has a spam filter setup for certain domains

Read this page http://mailchimp.com/resources/guides/how-to-avoid-spam-filters/html/ for more information.

Also try to use sendgrid http://sendgrid.com/transactional-email/pricing for testing your code just to make sure IP of your server is not black listed. Sendgrid has a free plan for beginners.
