I have created a email template with a link on clicking the link its opens a url from which I identify which user has clicked on the link.
But when I have some other user in the cc or bcc of this mail they also get the same link and when they click on it shows as person in :to click on link.
Is their any way I can find our which exact user clicked on link.
Example:
To: [email protected]
cc: [email protected],[email protected]
Body
Link: <a href='[email protected]'>Click here</a>
All three user will receive the same link, how can I find out which user has clicked on the link. Is their any way I can find out the current mail account id in my email template.
I am using .Net SMTP class for sending the mail.

In your case, since you're using SMTP, you can send individual emails to all of the recipients with specific links, instead of using CC or BCC.
Example:
To: [email protected]
Body
Link: <a href='[email protected]'>Click here</a>
To: [email protected]
Body
Link: <a href='[email protected]'>Click here</a>
To: [email protected]
Body
Link: <a href='[email protected]'>Click here</a>
But, you can't detect the clicker by just using a static link.
Hope this helps. :)
