Hi there,
In the video bellow, when talking about the workflow the author says "umbraco will send an email to the administrator..." http://umbraco.tv/documentation/videos/for-site-builders/building-a-news-section/workflow-users,-notifications-and-permissions
But i didn't find where to enter SMTP settings on umbraco's backend.How does it works?
(this newbie life sometimes is hard :-)
Umbraco uses the standard smtp mail settings in the web.config file to send out email.
<system.net> <mailSettings> <smtp> <network host="localhost" userName="username" password="password" /> </smtp> </mailSettings> </system.net>
More info from microsoft http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w355a94k.aspx
The from mail address used to send email notifications is set in the /config/umbracosettings.config file.
<notifications> <!-- the email that should be used as from mail when umbraco sends a notification --> <email>robot@umbraco.dk</email> </notifications>

I believe those are the kind of settings that would be available through the backend, so we would be able to change it easily when necessary.Anyways, thanks a lot for the information, I'll change my settings now.
