Can't load email Setting

[prandoz]

Hi,
I try to send mail with serilog, but I have this error:

Unable to find a method called Email for supplied arguments: batchingOptions, emailSubject, enableSsl, fromEmail, mailServer, outputTemplate, password, port, restrictedToMinimumLevel, toEmail, username. Candidate methods are:
Email(from, to, host, port, connectionSecurity, credentials, subject, body, formatProvider, restrictedToMinimumLevel, levelSwitch)
Email(options, batchingOptions, restrictedToMinimumLevel, levelSwitch)

My appsettings.json is:
{
"Logging": {
"LogLevel": {
"Default": "Information",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore": "Warning"
}
},
"Serilog": {
"Using": [ "Serilog.Sinks.Email" ],
"MinimumLevel": {
"Default": "Debug",
"Override": {
"Microsoft": "Warning"
}
},
"WriteTo": [
{
"Name": "Email",
"Args": {
"fromEmail": "[email protected]",
"toEmail": [ "[email protected]" ],
"mailServer": "smtp.gmail.com",
"port": 587,
"enableSsl": true,
"username": "[email protected]",
"password": "password",
"emailSubject": "Mail Error",
"restrictedToMinimumLevel": "Debug",
"outputTemplate": "{Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [{Level:u3}] ({SourceContext}) {NewLine}{Message}{NewLine}{Exception}"
}
},
{
"Name": "File",
"Args": {
"path": "Logs/Error_.log",
"outputTemplate": "{Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [{Level:u3}] ({SourceContext}) {NewLine}{Message}{NewLine}{Exception}{NewLine}{NewLine}",
"rollingInterval": "Day",
"retainedFileCountLimit": 10,
"restrictedToMinimumLevel": "Debug"
}
},
{
"Name": "Console",
"Args": {
"restrictedToMinimumLevel": "Debug",
"OutputTemplate": "{Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [{Level:u3}] {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception}"
}
}
]
}
}

and my Program.cs is:

`using Serilog;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
Serilog.Debugging.SelfLog.Enable(Console.Out);
Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
.ReadFrom.Configuration(builder.Configuration)
.CreateLogger();

builder.Host.UseSerilog();
builder.Services.AddControllers();

var app = builder.Build();
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.MapControllers();

app.Logger.LogDebug("Application started");

Log.Error("This is a test error to check email functionality");

app.Run();`

Thank you
Andrea
