Sending Emails from NAV

krvenkata

Hi

Does NAV support both POP3 and SMTP protocol for sending emails from it? I understand AX supports only SMTP.

Does NAV support both? Also what about Microsoft exchange

jannestig

NAV has SMTP out of the box but not POP, NAV has an outlook integration client as well which could be configured to support POP (outlook side)

Exchange uses MAPI

to just send mails SMTP should be sufficent. What is it you wish to send?

PO's, Alerts, Sales Invoices etc.

My client has a Exchange at his place. WIll he be able to use NAV for sending emails.

POP is for receiving e-mails...

NAV uses default mail client for sending e-mail.
And yes, you can use native SMTP (check download area for Mail.ocx or use 'Microsoft CDO For Exchange 2000 Library'.Message Automation.

hawwa

You can try smtp mail v1.6 components, which can be downloaded from mibuso. It works fine for me. You can download it from
