       from="devsupport@abc.co.in" 
       to="devsupport@abc.co.in" 
       async="true"  
       subject="Error log from [should come machine name here]" 
       smtpPort="0" 
       useSsl="true"/>
    <security allowRemoteAccess="yes" />
</elmah>

As far as I can see, there's no way to do this in config alone - you would have to write some code to handle this requirement.

On the other hand - it seems pretty simple and straightforward to write that code.

See this blog post Customizing ELMAH’s Error Emails by Scott Mitchell on how to do it.
