    Hi,

    You can set in the web.config file:

    <system.net>
  <mailSettings>
   <smtp configSource="MailSettings.config"/>
  </mailSettings>
</system.net>

    And have all your login details in the external file:

       <network 
    host="relayServerHostname" 
    port="portNumber"
    userName="username"
    password="password" />

    Probably worth putting the MailSettings.config in the Config folder.

    Then you would have to repeat login details each time.

    Using a .config file make them global across all of your code.

    Both work.
