E-mail functions for Custom Extensions

Question

Hello,
Is there a way to use the e-mail functions that P4P uses, including reading the config file, in a Custom Extension?
Thanks, in advance.

Answer 1

you can use something like the following
//If you want to get the current user's email (as the From):
var currentUser = userService.UserContext.User.ContainedUser as IUser;
string from = currentUser.email;
// To get the email info of the originator from a spec, access the SpecSummary's Originator property, which is an IUser, and then get the email property of the user.
string to = <yourSpec>.SpecSummary.Originator.email;
string subject = "...";
  EmailService().SendMessage(from , to, subject, body);
private static IUserService GetUserService()
            return AppPlatformHelper.ServiceManager.GetServiceByType<IUserService>();          
private static IEmailService EmailService()
       return AppPlatformHelper.ServiceManager.GetServiceByType<IEmailService>();
