sending email to user

Question

im new to sharepoint. im trying to make a state machine workflow with a function to send email notification to user and checker (basically to check the file uploaded). somehow im stuck when using send email tool in vs2010. i have found a possible solution by using something like this "createTask1.TaskProperties.SendEmailNotification = true;". will you be kind enough to give suggestion or simple to understand tutorial on how to solve this problem

Answer 1

One solution is to use the SPUtility.SendEmail, if you're developing the workflow yourself.

Example:

SPUtility.SendEmail(SPContext.Current.Site.OpenWeb(), true, false, "mail@mail.com", "Hello, this is Steve mailing you");
