I have a section in web.config like this:<br />
&nbsp;&lt;appSettings&gt;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;add key=&quot;mailServer&quot; value=&quot;localhost&quot; /&gt;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;add key=&quot;mailFromAddress&quot; value=&quot;testmail@test.serve<wbr />r&quot; /&gt;<br />
&nbsp; &lt;/appSettings&gt;<br />
<br />
How do i read the values?<br />
All the examples i can find is for looping through the values, and thats not what i want.. i need to read one value.<br />
