In order to do the exercises in your book can you use the external email server say such as your email account on gmail or HotMail to send email or do you have to configure and install SMTP server on IIS on your local PC? SMTP always confusing to no end. I don't seem to be able to grasp the SMTP issue for some strange reason. Maybe you can unconfuse me.

Hi there,

Page 334 and further provides an answer to that question.

Cheers,

Imar
