Web config serrings-

<Deleetask>
<Add key = "MailServer" value = "127.0.0.1"/>
<Add key = "mailreciever" value = "you@yourSite.com"/>
<Add key = "LOGNAME" value = "emposterrlog"/>
</Appsettings>
<System.net>
<Mailsettings>
<SMTP from = "admin@yourSite.com">
<Network host = "127.0.0.1"/>
</SMTP>
</Mailsettings>
</System.net>

 

Calling the method-

Catch (exception ex)
{
String strmsg =
"Date:" + datetime. Now. tostring ("DD/Mmm/YYYY hh: mm: SS") + "error:
"+ Ex. Message +" control: "+ (Control) sender). clientid. tostring ()
+ "Page:" + page;
Errorhandler objerrorhandler = new errorhandler ();
Objerrorhandler. msgtype = messagetype. mailandeventlog;
Objerrorhandler. raiseerror (strmsg, ex );
}

 

 

Hope it helps.
