How to Send Emails through Code Unit

ckndr47 · 2006-08-21

Hi,

I want to send email through my code unit, but i dont want to use MS Exchange or Outlook for that; that means i want my code unit to send emails internally without using any tool like outlook.

Please provide me that OCX and also sample code if you have. I need to do tht in a very short time.

Thanks in Advance,

Hi,

I had the same problem a few months ago. So, I looked around and I found a file blat.exe on www.blat.net. This is infact a smtp mailer which you can use for free. I even changed my mail codeunit so that this file is allways used instead of outlook. It works very fine and very quickly.

SMTP Mail v1.6 - Stabilized
SMTP OCX v1.6

ckndr47 · 2006-08-22

I am using ocx provided by SMTP Mail v1.6 - Stabilized.

But that email stuff is not working; i am unable to figure out what exactly the problem is becuase with same SMTP Host name i am sending emails from my webbased application and its working fine. But over here i have no clue. This is wht i have written inside my codeunit, please guide me up if i am missing out anything.

smtp.NewMessage('me@mysmtpdomain.com','Testing');
smtp.SetToAdress('testuser@test.com');
smtp.SetFromAdress('me@mysmtpdomain.com');
smtp.SetHost('MYHOSTNAME');
smtp.Send(); 
MESSAGE('%1',smtp.Send()); // this message is returning NO
MESSAGE('%1',smtp.WasSuccessful()); // this message is returning YES
MESSAGE('%1',smtp.LastError()); // this message is return nothing

Thanks in Advance

You have to set few more parameters...

On a example from http://www.nowecor.de/users/stephan/ind ... mtpocx.htm

here is a minimum of coding for successfull email sending (at least it worked for me).

SMTPMail.NewMessage('stephan.stapel@tu-clausthal.de','Subject of the mail');
      SMTPMail.SetWorkMode();

     SMTPMail.SetHost('gb');
     SMTPMail.SetUserID('coolesau');

     SMTPMail.AddLine('This is a test.');
     SMTPMail.AddLine('The second line.');
     SMTPMail.AddLine('Third line');
     SMTPMail.AddAttachment('c:\test.txt');
     SMTPMail.SetToAdress('stephan.stapel@tu-clausthal.de');
     SMTPMail.Send;

     IF NOT SMTPMail.WasSuccessful THEN
       MESSAGE(SMTPMail.LastError);

As you can see, you missed SetUserID parameter (which is required) and if you are testing, you should at least put one line of text (body)

We are using it at a customer and it works fine.
The code we use is like this:

ocxSmtpMailXElement.NewMessage("E-Mail Address","Subject");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.SetWorkMode();
ocxSmtpMailXElement.SetHost("Email Host");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.SetUserID("E-Mail User ID");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.AddLine("Body Line");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.SetToAdress("To email");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.AddCCRecipients("CC email");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.AddBCCRecipients("BCC email");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.AddAttachment("Filename");
ocxSmtpMailXElement.Send;
IF NOT ocxSmtpMailXElement.WasSuccessful THEN BEGIN
END;

I'm having trouble to send mail with this OCX but with From parameter .

I must give it only real mail address (something@something.com). I SMTP communication I can give in a header a "From: My Name <somethin@something>" line and with that I can send mail with more descriptive From field...

Has anybody managed to send a more descriptive From field with this OCX?

well, I have to say that, althought it's working perfectly what it should work, lack of options gives me no other option than to search for another solution. Or to turn on a Delphi and update ocx

Allright then do update :P, if you find any other solution .
Thanks

Once again, look at http://www.blat.net/syntax/syntax.html. This utility has much options.
