Hi.

I am currently experiencing the following problem: I = am using SmtpAppender. E-mails are sent via smtp.gmail.com which uses SSL. = My configuration file looks like that:

<appender name=3D"SmtpAppender" =
type=3D"log4net.Appender.SmtpAppender">

  =
<authentication value=3D"Basic" =
/>

  =
<username value=3D"username" =
/>

  =
<password value=3D"password" =
/>

  =
<to value=3D"one@gmail.com" =
/>

  =
<from value=3D"two@gmail.com" =
/>

  =
<subject value=3D"Logging information" =
/>

  =
<smtpHost value=3D"smtp.gmail.com" =
/>

  =
<bufferSize value=3D"512" =
/>

  =
<lossy value=3D"true" =
/>

  =
<evaluator =
type=3D"log4net.Core.LevelEvaluator">

    <threshold =
value=3D"INFO"/>

  =
</evaluator>

  =
<layout =
type=3D"log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">

    <conversionPattern =
value=3D"%newline%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property{NDC}] =
- %message%newline%newline%newline" =
/>

  =
</layout>

</appender>

 

I receive the following runtime =
error:

 

log4net:ERROR [SmtpAppender] Error occurred while sending e-mail
notification.

System.Web.HttpException: The server rejected the sender address. The =

Have I missed something in my configuration? When I =
send
e-mail with System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(…) with the setting =
provided
above, everything goes ok.
