Looks fine to me, verifiy your settings with your mail host. Make sure your using the correct port, alot of mail servers are moving away from port 25.

	If the SMTP is SSL, you must edit the appSettings and set
	"YAF.UseSMTPSSL" to "true".
-->
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="noreply@mydomain.com">
	<!-- Uncomment to specify SMTP settings -->
	<network host="mail.collegecutoff.com" port="25" password="my password" userName="noreply@mydomain.com" />
</smtp>

<!-- Use this setting for development: pickup directory must be exact path -->
<!--smtp deliveryMethod="SpecifiedPickupDirectory">
	<!-- specifiedPickupDirectory pickupDirectoryLocation="C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\email" / -->
<!-- /smtp-->

Then you also need to set a proper "from=" entry and proper "password=" and "username=" settings as well.
