The SMTP error message
On the signup.aspx page when deployed to the actual web hosting production server I get the following error when I try to run the application:
Server Error in '/' Application.
A from e-mail address must be specified in the From property or the system.net/mailSettings/smtp config section.
What needs to be done to fix this issue? Do you know?
Thanks

>> What needs to be done to fix this issue?
You need to do what the error message says: specify a from e-mail address in the From property or the system.net/mailSettings/smtp config section.
Full details can be found - still - in Chapter 9, Page 334 and further.
Cheers,
Imar

In the property section?
Is that set in the web.config file or in the property section on the Email Wizard?

Why don't you try it out?
You should be able to pick either. The advantage of web.config is that it applies side-wide; the advantage of setting it in the sign up page is that you can use a specific account for just that page.

Property settings
On the signup.aspx page can you set the from field in the property section of the email wizard? Is that set in the property pages?
