it helps some times Your mailSettings variable isn't initialised to anything - it won't magically contain your configuration.
You need to use the ConfigurationManager class to access it (remember to add a reference to System.Configuration if not already done so.) You will also need to add using System.Net.Configuration for the following code.

it should still fix some issue Need to read my SMTP email settings defined under system.net section in my web.config file. , You can use the WebConfigurationManager:

code :

Configuration configurationFile = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(Request.ApplicationPath);
MailSettingsSectionGroup mailSettings = configurationFile.GetSectionGroup("system.net/mailSettings") as MailSettingsSectionGroup;

Response.Write(mailSettings.Smtp.Network.Host);

C# ASP.NET MVC Access SMTP settings from config file

seems to work fine I seem to be stuck. I have an asp.net mvc 4 app and I want to send email from a service class. The service class is in a C# library project separate from the mvc project in the solution. I want to set the email configuration in a separate file that is called from a config file. Should the following go in the web.config in the mvc project or create an app.config file in the service project? , Just use:

code :

SmtpClient SmtpServer = new SmtpClient();

SMTP Mail client settings in app.config file C#

seems to work fine System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient
Specifically, the Send(...) method. SmtpClient will automatically pull the details from your app/web.config file. You don't need to do anything to use the configuration, it's all handled automatically.

I hope this helps you . I think you can avoid using the custom settings class because the web.config is cached the first time it is accessed. See
