Hi- I have decided to develop / explore more from this wonderful Umazel package. I have added a contact form/section in a page and in umbraco back-office i ahve mention the email address where on Submit, the message will be sent. But it seems to be not all.
I added a smtp element in mailSettings in web.config and with gmail it worked but now my site is live and i am accessing my domains email and not gmail, so i am wondering how to fix this.
Thanks in advance
I'm glad you are finding the package useful! Well, there are two parts on what you are trying to achieve:
The first, as you stated, is the smtp settings in web.config. There you specify the smtp server to connect to and credentials to do that.
The second is the "Notification Email From" field that you will find on the "Email Notification Settings" tab. This email should be a valid email that exists on you mail server - this will be the address notification emails will be sent from.
If those two are correctly configured, you should expect no problems. I am not sure what you mean by saying "it worked with gmail but now my site is live and I am accessing my domains email and not gmail". Does this mean you can't make it work your your domain's email? If so, does the "Notification Email From" field contain an email address that is valid for your domain?
Nitin, if it worked for you please mark my answer as solution so that other people know this is solved. You can find the "mark as solution" link in the bottom of each post. Thanks!
it works now,
1. i had to ask my hosting provider smtp details for the email account i got from host, these details are to be added in web.config in mailSettings element.
2. Then i should add the same email in umbraco backoffice in contact form template.
Now it works well

yes exactly, to start receiving/sending emails, is in 2 parts. I got it working now, all which was missing was smtp details in web.config file
