p. 317 - Sending email from your site
Hi Imar,
I'm a little stuck on this section. I'm working from a laptop at home and currently have verizon for my internet service. I don't have Microsoft Outlook configured because I just use my verizon account for email. How do I get the SMTP server address so I can set up the web.config similar to p. 317?
Thank you.

Hi there,
It depends. Verizon may be offering one; not sure. You could also create a Gmail / Hotmail / Yahoo account and use their SMTP server.
Alternatively, just drop the mails on the local disk, as explained on page 318. That's my preferred solution during development.
Cheers,
Imar

Thank you for the suggestions. I set up an account with Gmail and used their SMTP server. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to get this working!
After sending the message it takes a while before I get the "Message Sent" message. Is this supposed to happen?
Thank you.

I don't think I have any sleep code. I did not see any as I was typing in the examples from the book.
Thanks

Oh, you're right. That's added in Chapter 10.
In that case, it may just be that your network or SMTP server is slow...
Cheers,

You're right. I tested the code out today and did not see any delay.
Thank you again.
