how to consume system.net settings in the web.config?

Hi there,

I'm using ASP.NET 4.5 MVC and would like to use the MailKit, however, how do you use the system.net in my web.config to MailKit?

<system.net>
        <mailSettings>
            <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="system@company.com">
                <network host="localhost" />
            </smtp>
        </mailSettings>
    </system.net>

I would just like to use the web.config and would not like to add any literal strings configuration to my codes so that to make things simple and organised.

You'll have to write your own custom code to parse web.config to get the values.

MailKit doesn't parse web.config and never will.
