emailing from filepro

[john at mcngroup.net]

This will be for a customer running 5.7.03, I have that version as well and 6.0 and can upgrade them if necessary.

 

I am running windows 10 and the customer is running windows server

 

This is for a customer I have had  for 22 years. It needs to be dependable 

The email process should be able to handle both. From outlook I have been sending SMS

 

It is my intention to populate the email from the data in filepro automatically based on a schedule or during input processing from @key or @WLF

 

My customer is running fileprogi so I can use either character base or gui

The mail.ini is running and they can open email from input processing.  However it only populate from and to. Need to know how to automatically populate the email subject and body 

I want the process to complete everything for the email

From, To, Subject, Body and if needed for the automatic process, send email

 

I have played with smpt from powershell command line and understand the gui has

Cause client to send an email message (25):

(From^To^cc^bcc^subject^attachmentFileName^bodyFileName)

288 ------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

_ If: _

Then: line="bill at fptech.com^support at fptech.com^^^Subject Line^c <mailto:bill at fptech.com%5esupport at fptech.com%5e%5e%5eSubject%20Line%5ec:\%20> :\ "{"NewGIfp\ "{"test_file.txt^"

289 ------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

_ If: _

Then: line=line{"c:\ "{"NewGIfp\ "{"test_file.txt" _

290 ------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

_ If: _

Then: status=@GUI.SENDMESG( <mailto:status=@GUI.SENDMESG(%2225%22,line)> "25",line) 

 

But I have not gotten this to work properly and support has not be helpful.

 

What do you have available?

This is a question that is best answered after the following questions are answered by you:

 

What version of filePro are you running?

 

What operating system(s)?

 

Do you want something cheap, quick and dirty or is this needed for a business that can & will pay for dependability?

 

Is your ideal solution text messages or do you want email?

Looking for assistance in creating and sending automated email from filepro

Overall purpose is to send text messages by email to notify clients of
scheduled maintenance

Or is there an alternate solution to sending text messages from filepro?

Have tried creating and sending email from powershell but did not get that
to work.
