Step 1. Write this code to get system mac address in a separate class: public string GetMACAddress() { NetworkInterface [] nics = NetworkInterface .GetAllNetworkInterfaces(); String sMacAddress = string .Empty; foreach ( NetworkInterface adapter in nics) { if (sMacAddress == String .Empty) // only return MAC Address from first card { IPInterfaceProperties properties = adapter.GetIPProperties(); sMacAddress = adapter.GetPhysicalAddress().ToString(); } } return sMacAddress; } Step 2: Write code to send mail in same class as created for above. Step 3: Add installer class and override below function public override void Install(IDictionary stateSaver) { base.Install(stateSaver); } Step 4: Below base.Install(stateSaver) line call function for send email Step 5: In custom action window, Add custome action for Commit filder ad select Primary output from AppName (Active). Its Done... good luck n happy coding
