Hi, all.
I'm new to C# programming. I'm even newer to programming email
capabilities into my code. What I need to do is create three (3)
functions:
* sendEmail, using a Mail object (which needs to be created) as a
parameter
* forgotPassword, using whatever arguments it needs -- uses sendEmail
to send lost password to user
* sendRegistrationInfo, using whatever arguments it needs -- uses
sendEmail to send registration info to user
Can someone please take a look at this code and tell me if it makes
sense? Building the code doesn't throw any errors.

Again, I'm new to all of this. Also. My professors have always told me
that my logic is wonky. So when errors do pop up, I'm usually confused
because my logic flow makes sense to me. The compiler, however, seems
to think otherwise :P
I would really appreciate any criticism (constructive or otherwise).
Thanks,
Allie
