Visual studio 2010 email activity for workflow

Question

I am using visual studio 2010(sequential sharepoint work flow) and trying to send an email activity automatically when the approval is rejected. I have added the "send email" activity in the workflow design. Can some body please tell me what has to be added to code. I would appreciate a detailed explanation as I am doing this for the first time. The workflow will be added to sharepoint.
