如何通过代码将自定义configSections添加到app.config文件

Question

How can I add sections to an app.config file through code?

Something like this in my config file, but it can have multiple sections but not through appSettings as I would like to add multiple values to it.

<configSections>
 <!-- CUSTOM CONFIG SECTIONS BELOW -->
 <section name="EmailSection" type="Email.EmailSection, Email" />
</configSections>

<EmailSection>
 <Emails>
  <email id="HOST" name="mail.somedomain.com" />
  <email id="PORT" name="25" />
  <email id="TOADDRESS" name="" />
  <email id="FROMADDRESS" name="dev@somedomain.com" />
 </Emails>
</EmailSection>

I would like to do this through an import method in my code so i can select an xml file which will then add the sections to my app.config.

Managed to get this working through this .

I had to loop through my items and add them in, but does what I need it.

Thanks for the advice though.
