Am at try ti out on page 593 and it needs to configure my email settings. Which i skipped in chapter nine i beleive. I have no ideal how to do this. I have a fastmail.us email and a yahoo email. Is there an easy set of directions to use somewhere. I can even use another email type i guess like gmail if need be. Thanks for any help

Hi there,

Take a look here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3...-configuration

The information is in code, but you can use the same stuff (mail server name, port etc) to configure the mail server in the web.config file.

Alternatively, take a look at page 318 to learn how to drop the mail in a local drop folder; which is what I prefer during development.

Cheers,

Imar
