Can't setup SMTP

Featured Replies

Hi there,

I am in no way able to succeed in trying to set up sending emails via SMTP. I am using FileMaker 10 Adv. I am quite familiar with email servers so I am pretty sure I filled in everything correct (authentication is set to yes).

I tried this using a server side script (FM Server 10 Adv). The error log shows error 1506. I tried sending an email from a local FileMaker file on both Mac and Windows still to no avail. I tried 2 different mail servers.

I tried using values from database fields and manually entered values. I tried using a "Name" in the setup dialog of SMTP and tried it without it.

Nothing makes any email to get out of FileMaker. The mail accounts that I tried to use are working perfectly fine with any other email client.

What am I missing??

Regards,

Thomas

Is the script being run with sufficient access privileges to access any of the data forming the e-mail?

You can test by setting the script to run with FULL ACCESS privileges.

I too have tried every configuration under the sun as the original poster. I ran my script with FULL ACCESS check-marked and get the same error (1506). I have tried all the "hacks" as in leaving the names blank, trying static fields v. global fields, etc. I've got tons of other things setup using my SMTP server and never had this much problem.

Also, just a note. I successfully receive notification emails from my FileMaker server so I know I have the appropriate relaying setup in my SMTP server to allow relaying email from my FM server.

I am having this same problem. The extra annoying part is that this happened all of a sudden to scheduled scripts that were working fine before this week.

I'm seeing this on both server 10.0v1 and 10.0v2 on mac os x server 10.5.7 and server 10.4.11.
