SetSMTP


Platform Objects


Description

Sets the SMTP server for mail sending operations.  An attempt to find a server automatically will be made if all parameters are omitted.

Syntax


trg.mail.SetSMTP server, login, password

server (input) - name/address of the mail sever (optionally with a port)
login (input) - username for the mail server
password (input) - password for the mail server


SMTP port could be specified with a standard notation, separating with a colon, like:
trg.mail.SetSMTP "smtp.example.com:587"

Any non-standard port number could be specified, but only if the port number is equal to 465, the SSL will be used for a SMTP connection.

Also, instead of the port number you could specify the letters "TLS".
In this case, the connection will be made to the standard port 25, and then switched to the secured TLS mode (using the STARTTLS command).
For an example:
trg.mail.SetSMTP "smtp.example.com:TLS"


Return value


This function returns true on a success.

Sample

Function Start
  trg.mail.SetSMTP "smtp.office365.com:TLS", login, password
End Function
