Please assist.

Hi,

 

are you using SMTP or EWS on your environment?

Hi,

 

Thank you for the reply, we are using EWS if that means our connection string is pointing to Exchange's webservice.

 

Thank you

I believe a Smartforms action to send an email uses the "Mail Server" environment variable/process string table.  Please check if this is contains a valid SMTP server value.


 


You can test sending SMTP email using telnet as per:

Hi Tim,

 

I checked Email Server, our exchange server is configured and I did test it using the link you provided. Still no luck.

 

Thank you.

 

 

Its sorted, I missed the check on "Default" on the Environemt Variables for Mail Server.
