EventX - Emails

Vote:
 

Hello everyone, I am trying to get the EventX package up and running with EPiServer CMS 5. I am following the article by Johan Olofsson (http://labs.episerver.com/en/Blogs/Johano/Dates/2009/5/EventX-part-1/) and have successfully integrated it. However, my question is around emails. The articlae says that on certain registration states, emails will be sent out to registered users. This currently is not happening. - The article doesn't mention anything about email configuration.

How do I get EPiServer to send out emails when working with the EventX package?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Hi Mohammed!

 

EventX uses the ordinary System.Net.Mail class, which is configured in web.config under the setting <system.net><mailSettings> section.

More information on this can be found here:

Scott Guthrie has a blogpost with some sample code which might also be of interest:

Regards,
Johan

Hi Johan,

And thank you for the response. Thats cleared things up. Since the sending of emails is done by the workflow, I wasn't sure if further config tasks were required.

Thank you
Mohammed
