I have debugged the code leaving to us from a vendor for several months. Till today I just find that the log4net configuration still contains vendor’s information.
My simple question:
Does the vendor can track and record my work during the period? Is it secure for my pasted work?
What is the smtpHost IP?

<appender name="SmtpAppender" type="log4net.Appender.SmtpAppender">
  <to value="somebody@some_vendor.com"/>
  <from value="person@some_vendor.com"/>
  <subject value="Company Portal"/>
  <smtpHost value="xy.a.b.cd"/>
  <authentication value="Basic"/>
  <username value="somebody@some_vendor.com"/>

Thank you.

    Ok, it isn’t secure, because if your application has internet access and smtphost is available and works, then everything, that logger is supposed to log will be mailed to developer.
    Look through the code, what type of messages are loged?

    smtphost is dns name for machine that provides stmp service, for sending emails.
