How to send email by Page onLoad when the user enters to this page?

I am a new ASP.NET developer and I could be able to send email by the web application that I am working on it. Now, I want to create a page that when the user opens it, it will send email automatically. How to do that?

First of all you can add some code to your Web.Config. In my example I'm using gmail server. Knowing the settings of your server you can easy change it.

<system.net>
  <mailSettings>
    <smtp from="[email protected]" deliveryMethod="Network">
      <network userName="[email protected]" 
               password="yourrealpassword" 
               host="smtp.gmail.com" 
               defaultCredentials="false" 
               port="587"
               enableSsl="true" />
      </smtp>
  </mailSettings>
</system.net>

Secondly you can modify your pageload event

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    MailMessage mailMessage = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
    mailMessage.To.Add("[email protected]");
    mailMessage.Subject = "Some subject";
    mailMessage.Body = "Some text";

    using (var smtpClient = new SmtpClient())
    {
        smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
    }
}

You could use the SmtpClient class to send an email. The documentation contains an example of its usage.
