Hi,
First write below code in web.config </system.web> and before
</configuration>:
<system.net >
<mailSettings >
<smtp from="who@myhost.com">
<network host="mail.myhost.net" userName="xxxxx" password="xxxx"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net >
Then try this code:
Configuration configurationFile =
WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~\\Web.config");
MailSettingsSectionGroup mailSettings =
configurationFile.GetSectionGroup("system.net/mailSettings") as
MailSettingsSectionGroup;
if (mailSettings != null)
{
int port = mailSettings.Smtp.Network.Port;
string host = mailSettings.Smtp.Network.Host;
string password = mailSettings.Smtp.Network.Password;
string username = mailSettings.Smtp.Network.UserName;
lblHost.Text = host;
lblUserName.Text = username;
lblPassword.Text = password;
}
Also include following namespaces:
using System.Configuration;
using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Net.Configuration;

Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards.
