Hi,

Followed all the steps to enable email feature. Your documentation says that there should be notification emails when content is updated and so far I have not seen this to work. No errors show up in the log in the log either. I added Contact Form and email works fine there. Any ideas? Below are my settings for user.config  & web.config

<add key="SMTPServer" value="192.168.1.231" />

<add key="SMTPRequiresAuthentication" value="false" />
<add key="SMTPPort" value="25" />
<add key="SMTPUser" value="" />
<add key="SMTPPassword" value="" />
<!-- leave this blank for ascii encoding -->
<add key="SmtpPreferredEncoding" value="" />

<!-- Setting this to true will cause SMTP settings to appear under Site Settings in the admin menu.
When this is enabled, you can configure different SMTP settings for each of your sites. If
all sites share one SMTP server, leave this set to false and override the SMTP settings below
in your user.config file. Note you also need to specify SMTP settings further below in the
system.net section. The settings here appply to features, but the settings in the system.net
mailSettings section are used for site registration and password recovery. -->
<add key="EnableSiteSettingsSmtpSettings" value="true"/>
<add key="MaskSmtpPasswordInSiteSettings" value="true"/>
<add key="ShowSmtpEncodingOption" value="false"/>

<add key="SMTPUser" value=""/>
<add key="SMTPPassword" value=""/>
<add key="SMTPTimeoutInMilliseconds" value="30000"/>
<!-- Leave this blank for ASCII encoding. Allowed values are utf-8, utf-32, and unicode -->
<add key="SmtpPreferredEncoding" value=""/>

Yup, forgot to mention, I set those settings in the tab as well, still no emails.

Content Workflow is enabled. Also, I am testing it this way User1 edits page, User2 submits it for approval, User1 should receive email confirmation. The log doesn't report any errors on this, but email works fine with Contact form.

EDIT: Looks like it's working now after I disabled <add key="EnableSiteSettingsSmtpSettings" value="false"/>

Thank you for your help!

Oddly the email feature doesn't work on all pages, including new ones that I created. As a test I created a new blank page in the root. Added the same security setting and Submitted new content change for approval. No email came through. I hit reject that content, enter reason and email worked.
