I am trying to work the example on page 606. When I fill in the form and submit it with the new user information it appears to work fine, but I do not get the confirmation email. I have used two different email addresses in the form. Step 5 mentions setting a valid "from" email address, but I still have planetwrox@example.com there. I do not get any errors when I submit the form, but I also don't get the confirmation email. Is there some setting that I might be missing there? Please let me know. Thank you.

Well, I do see where it is depositing the email files in C:\TempMail now. I forgot about that. To actually receive the emails directly I would have to include the smtp actual settings in the web.config file. Is that correct? But, I do see the files for the emails being placed in the folder.

Yep, that's correct. Files are either dropped on disk, or sent out, depending on how you configure the smtp element.

Cheers,
