Entering or editing SMTP options
To send email through SMTP, you must supply information about the sender and the SMTP server in
the SMTP Options dialog box. You see this dialog box whenever you choose SMTP Server or click
Specify (when SMTP Server is selected) in the Send Mail dialog box. FileMaker
Pro uses this
information whenever you send email through SMTP. You do not have to enter it each time you send
mail.
To enter or edit SMTP options:
1. Display the Send Mail dialog box by doing either of the following.
• Choose File menu > Send > Mail.
• To create a script to send email, choose Scripts menu > Manage Scripts. In the
Manage Scripts dialog box, click New. In the Edit Script dialog box, for View, choose
Miscellaneous, double-click Send Mail in the list, then click Specify.
2. In the Send Mail dialog box:
• to enter SMTP options for the first time, for Send via, choose SMTP Server
• to edit SMTP options (and SMTP Server is selected), click Specify
3. In the SMTP Options dialog box, enter user and SMTP server information.
Note To specify a calculation that generates content for a field, click Specify next to the field,
create the calculation, then click OK.
For Do this
Name Enter the name of the email sender (for example, your name). This name
appears in the From field of your outgoing messages.
E-mail Address Enter the email address from which outgoing mail will be sent (for example,
[e-mail]).
Reply-To Address Enter the email address to which incoming replies will be sent. This can be
different from the outgoing address (for example, [e-mail]). If
you do not enter a reply-to address, replies will be sent to the outgoing
address.
Outgoing SMTP
Server
Enter the name of the SMTP server from which email will be sent.
Server Port Keep the default 25, or enter a different number (such as X.400), to specify
the port number to connect to on the SMTP server.
Connection
encryption
Choose None if you do not need a secure connection, choose SSL (Secure
Sockets Layer) if your email requires a secure connection, or choose TLS
(Transport Layer Security) to allow both secure and nonsecure connections
over the same port (the actual connection encryption depends on the SMTP
server’s configuration).
