I have v4 of umbraco and very new to using it, i have set up a user with editor rights and i can login and change content and then click send to publish, but who gets the email? and where do i change it etc?
In addition, you need to configure a smtp server in your web.config:
<add key="umbracoSmtpServer" value="127.0.0.1"/>
and you need to configure a from address in the umbracoSettings.xml
<notifications> <!-- the email that should be used as from mail when umbraco sends a notification --> <email>[email protected]</email> </notifications>
If you want a user to receive notifications, log on to the backoffice, right click on a node you want to receive notifications for and go to "notifications"
The content of the actual notification email being sent can be changed in the appropriate language file, for example: umbraco/config/lang/en.xml
FYI - umbracoSmtpServer was removed from v4 and it now uses the System.Net config section (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.configuration.aspx)

No one will receive an email by default, they need to subscribe to notifications for that page.

@Slace oops :) I didn't actually look it up but copy pasted some config code. Thnx for mentioning.
Thanks for this guys, so if someone where to subscribe to the top level node, ie Home would they get alerted for all pages under it or just that page?
Yes, I believe that's the case.
cheers,
