Description

SendBuffer and SendEmail are never called.

I've tried many different configurations.

Here's my setup.

My config:

<appender name="SmtpAppender" type="log4net.Appender.SmtpAppender">
<to value=""******** />
<from value="[e-mail]" />
<subject value="test logging message" />
<smtpHost value="smtp.gmail.com" />
<password value="*************** " />
<userName value="******" />
<authentication value="Basic" />
<locationInfo value="false" />
<port value="587" />
<enableSsl value="true" />
<bufferSize value="5" />
<lossy value="true" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%newline%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property

{NDC}

] - %message%newline%newline%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>

<root>
<level value="ALL" />
<appender-ref ref="SmtpAppender" />
