Very interesting stuff the Razor pages. I personally prefer the MVC three separate folders but I can see how it can help with small projects.
Thanks for the article!

Glad you like it :-)
Depends where you wanna place the code to send the mails. Could be a separate email service class or directly in the OnPostAsync method where I put the comment ("// create and send the mail here") in

Hi Jürgen,
First time using this site, great article! Coincidentally I think I've also seen some of your answers on StackOverflow before.
Thank you for a great article!

Hi Jürgen,
Where is ContactModel defined?
Comment written by Jürgen Gutsch on 07.03.2018 16:07:35
Hi Craig,
Many thanks for the comment.
The ContactModel ist the "code behind" class of the contact cshtml Razor page. Every Razor page has a model class in behind that has the same name as the page and the prefix "Model".
Sorry for the confusion. I expected it to be clear, because this is how Razor pages work.

Thank you. I don't normally use code-behind so was not sure. Based on your example I have a working test project.
Does it work for gmail, yahoo too? Can someone send message to my gmail account if I use this method?
Hi @FaridGN
Yes, just configure the line with:
message.To.Add(new MailAddress("[email protected]"));
Add your email address here.
If you want to use Gmail, Yahoo, etc. as SMTP, you should configure the SmtpClient:
var smtpClient = new SmtpClient("mail.mydomain.com")
