Send Mail will not allow two (2) attachments

[JH Howland]

Filemaker Pro Adv 12 running under Windows 10.

Trying to "Send Mail" with two (2) attachments.  The specified attachment files are defined as $Path1 (from_map.png) and $Path2 (to_map.png).  Both files are located at C:/Users/{user id}/AppData/Local/Temp/S<n>.

The Specified files are entered as:
$PATH1
$PATH2

However, when Send Mail is activated only $PATH1 is shown as an attachment.

Can't seem to get past this problem, help please.

Hi There

The ability to send mail with two attachments was added in FileMaker 17, up to that point you can only send one attachment with FM's built-in script steps.

You may be able to use a plug-in (MonkeyBreadSoftware or BaseElements) to send multiple attachment in FileMaker 12.

There are also a handful of dedicated plugins for email, which give you HTML email etc:

360works: Email plugin

CNS Plug-ins: SMTPit Pro

Dacons: Mailit
