Sending Email In .NET Core 2.0

Consider the following written in .NET Core 2.0.

             SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.exmail.qq.com", )
             {
                 UseDefaultCredentials = true,
                 Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[e-mail]", "yHbgby"),
                 EnableSsl = true
             };

             MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage("[e-mail]", "[e-mail]")
             {
                 Body = "<h1>body</h1>",
                 Subject = "subject",
                 BodyEncoding = Encoding.UTF8,
                 IsBodyHtml = true
             };

             client.Send(mailMessage);

             client.Dispose();
             mailMessage.Dispose(); 

For the most part, if you had code that could send email via SMTP in the full framework, it’s likely a matter of a copy and paste job to get it going in .NET Core now!
