I have the same problem. Do you found the answer?

Long story short, you can't :-/

Serilog.Settings.AppSettings does not do "complex" object creation.

This Stack Overflow question offers a workaround. In the example, this is a workaround for the JSON settings, but you can do something similar, and then do this in your config :

<add key="serilog:write-to:EmailCustom.param1" value="Test log from Serilog"/>
<add key="serilog:write-to:EmailCustom.param2" value="Test log from Serilog"/>
