MVC 3 Registration Confirmation Email

Question

I'm using the stock MembershipProvider but I would like to add a method to send a confirmation email to the use upon registration. Without doing it directly within my Register actionresult, what would be the best way to do it?

I'm quite new to MVC so please take that in consideration in your reply.

Answer 1

I would strongly recommend you MvcMailer for email sending from an ASP.NET MVC application. Scott Hanselman also blogged about it.
