You can attach the file in following way:

To add the message string as attachement, you can simply do like this:

message.Attachments.Add(new Attachment("message"));

To add the file as attachment, you have to do like this:

  string file = "test.xls";
  message.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(file, MediaTypeNames.Application.Octet));

ALL you need to do is define an atachment object because you still use System.net.mail

Attachment data = new Attachment(file, MediaTypeNames.Application.Octet);
message.Attachments.Add(data);
