have you looked in to how this is done programatically, with XmlDocument for example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument(v=vs.100).aspx
I need more information on how you are handling this xml in the first place to help any more 0.o

Why do you tag with C and post in the C++ section if you need this in C#?

Solution 1

C#

XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.Load(yourXMLDocumentPath);

XmlNode oneNode = xDoc.SelectSingleNode("appSettings/mail"); // or whatever else

foreach(XmlNode iNode in oneNode.ChildNodes) {
  // scan your <mail> element or whatever else
}
