Sending Email from FM-Please help

[William Mead]

Hi, I hope I am posting this in the right place. I would like to send email to a group of clients, but each client gets a separate, personalized PDF. I can put the appropriate PDF in the container field for each record, but how do I get Filemaker to grab that PDF and attach it to the email? Does anyone know a way of doing this? Perhaps a 3rd party plug in? or maybe I am missing something built into FM Pro

Perhaps I posted too quickly. Some searching around yealded the result of a 3rd party plugin call SMTPit Pro, which I hope will do the job for me. I will give that a try and report back here if it works.

William-

I am looking for a similar solution. I want to create a PDF file and attach it to an email so that everything is customized.

The difference between our needs is that I understand that you want to export from a container field. I want to create the PDF file from a formatted report and use the Save Records as PDF script step.

If you get anything that you think will help, please let me know! I'll follow this thread.

Thank you.
