Using SMTP with filemaker server 11

The script from an FMPro DB sends a message that a task has been completed.

From the desktop OS Lion the eMail message is sent ok

From an iPad the following message "Email(s) could not be sent successfully "

In SMTP setup in the script I have removed the "Name" out of the first setup box

I have looked on forums and found nothing to do with the iPads

The iPad have active eMail accounts

The iPads access the server for the databases (not locally mounted)

Why would it work on the desktop but not the iPads??

any ideas

Is the iPad on the same wifi network as the desktops? It could be the ISP the iPad is connected to is blocking the mail.

Hi Vaughan

At this stage Ive not tested from the outside world

So to answer the wifi question. The desktops are on ethernet wired (not wifi) and the iPads are wifi. This part you may have highlighted a network setup, i will check both wifi and lan setting

will come back to you

Thanks for the tought

So the wifi and ethernet go to the same ISP?
