if there are other ways to send emails from SharePoint.?

We can use the SendMail method from the SPutility class to send simple emails, however it is not as robust as using the System.Net.Mail functionality since it doesn’t allow things like setting priorities on the email.

How do you connect to a SharePoint list, and how do you insert a new List Item?

Please find below code to connect to share-point list item and for inserting the list item.

using(SPSite mySite = new SPSite(“yourserver”))

{

using(SPWeb myWeb = mySite.OpenWeb())

{

SPList interviewList = myWeb.Lists["listtoinsert"];

SPListItem newItem = interviewList.Items.Add();

newItem["interview"] = “interview”;

newItem.Update();

}

}

How would you loop using SPList through all SharePont List items, assuming you know the name (in a string value) of the list you want to iterate through, and already have all the site code written?

SPList interviewList = myWeb.Lists["listtoiterate"];

foreach (SPListItem interview  in interviewList)

{

// Do Something

}

How do you return SharePoint List items using SharePoint web services?

In order to retrieve list items from a SharePoint list through Web Services, you should use the lists.asmx web service by establishing a web reference in Visual Studio.

The lists.asmx exposes the GetListItems method, which will allow the return of the full content of the list in an XML node. It will take parameters like the GUID of the name of the list you are querying against, the GUID of the view you are going to query, etc.

How to built queries with the lists.asmx web service.

In order to build queries with this service, one of the parameters that the GetListItems method exposes is the option to build a CAML query.

When retrieving List items using SharePoint Web Services, how do you specify explicit credentials to be passed to access the list items?

In order to specify explicit credentials with a Web Service, you generally instantiate the web service, and then using the credentials properties of the Web Service object you use the System.Net.NetworkCredential class to specify the username, password, and domain that you wish to pass when making the web service call and operations.

when you should state the credentials in code.

You must state the credentials you are going to pass to the web service before you call any of the methods of the web service, otherwise the call will fail.
