I'm using Postal library for sending emails in an ASP.NET MVC5 Web project. It works fine when called from a controller. However, I planned a number of jobs to send emails using fluentScheduler. And I am calling a method that sends emails using the instructions here http://aboutcode.net/postal/outside-aspnet.html.
But I still get the same exception everytime I run the background task.
object reference not set to an instance of an object
