Corporate library: logbook and email

Does anyone have a link to a tutorial or an example of how to use the logging unit to send an error message?

You need to configure EmailTraceListener in the Application Logging block.

You can use the Enterprise Library user interface, but the web.config section looks something like this:

<loggingConfiguration name="Logging Application Block" tracingEnabled="true" defaultCategory="Default" logWarningsWhenNoCategoriesMatch="true"> <listeners> <add toAddress="admin@company.com" fromAddress="fromemail@company.com" subjectLineStarter="" subjectLineEnder="" smtpServer="127.0.0.1" smtpPort="25" formatter="" listenerDataType="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.Configuration.EmailTraceListenerData, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" traceOutputOptions="None" filter="All" type="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.TraceListeners.EmailTraceListener, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" name="Email" /> </listeners> <categorySources> <add switchValue="All" name="Default"> <listeners> <add name="Email" /> </listeners> </add> </categorySources> </loggingConfiguration>

This will work if your SMTP server is configured correctly. You can use Telnet to verify this by sending email at the command line.
