    Cant Send E-mail using Contour

    I have set up my first umbraco site woohoo, and now I want to upload it but before I do I have to get my forms sending emails.

    Now I don't want to do anything special just user goes to contact page fills in form clicks submit and the e-mail ends up in my inbox. So far I have got my form on the on the screen validation works fine, when I click send, 2-3 second delay and it takes me to the thank you page.

    I don't get any errors or anything, so I am not sure what I should do, the only thing is when setting up countour I have not had come arross the part where I would put in the email address for the form to be sent to.

    The mail settings looks like this....

      <system.net>
        <mailSettings>
       
            <smtp>
              <network host="mail.desingsquad.net" userName="[email protected]" password="justpassword" />
            </smtp>
          
        </mailSettings>
    
    
      </system.net>
    This is all the config I have really so what else do I need...I have no idea about 'work flow' is that what I need?

    That looks just fine. You have to set up a workflow indeed. It's just something that says: when the form is submitted don't just store it but also do .. XYZ.

    In this case XYZ is send an e-mail. There's predefined templates for sending mails, have a look, it should be self-explanatory.
