    Hi, Hussain.

    You can use context.CallerId to retrieve identifier of user which invoke create/update operation.

    Well, the user id comes in on the context.  For the email I use the SMTPClient class.

    But why do you need a plug-in?  There is already an existing Workflow Activity to send an email.  Have you ruled out an event driven workflow rule?
