Configure SMTP for email services

Optimizely Configured Commerce uses the System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient object, provided by the .NET Framework, to send e-mail.

For Insite-hosted solutions, the SMTP settings will be configured for you by Insite. The application will use an external emailing service for all e-mail communication.

For on-premises solutions, these settings must be configured in the web.config file in the root directory of the Configured Commerce project.

The following example configures the delivery format, delivery method, and from address for sending e-mails.
