Hope someone can help. I want to send email from my Azure account. My domain name is configured to work with Azure.
I could not find easily on the web how to send an email from an Azure account. There was some mention of SendGrid, but it seems my account does not support it.
Can someone please guide me through how to send email from a website hosted in Azure?
