    Hi Everyone,


    As a warning, I'm very new to asp.net, so please bear with me!

    I'm using the Extended Personal Site kit 2.8 by jeremywadsworth.com.

    The only issue i'm having after uploading the website to GoDaddy is receiving notifications when a user registers, or sending out notifications.

    Here's what i have in my web.config file.

     

    	<system.net>
    		<mailSettings>
          <smtp from="**********@gmail.com">
    			<network host="smtp.gmail.com" port="587" userName="*********@gmail.com" password="**************" />
    			</smtp>
    		</mailSettings>
    	</system.net>

    Also have these two settings set.

    <add key="NotifyAccount" value="<my admin accounts name>"/> 

    <add key="AdminEmail" value="********@gmail.com"/> 

     

    I don't receive any errors, just no emails being sent out as far as i can tell. 

    Thank you in advance!

    Thank you!

    I had to set the network host to the godaddy relay server.

    <network host="relay-hosting.secureserver.net"/>

    Works now =)

    Right now i receive an email when a user registers; but is there any way i can set it so the user received an email when i set the account to active?

    Thanks!
