SendMail

[Davidatlamont]

I have a few users accessing db via web browser.  They are basically submitting jobs and I was hoping they could SUBMIT when done and then send me an email of the job request.  However, appears the SendMail step not available through web access, any other alternatives?  I basically want to be notified of any new job requests, even willing to go to db myself if some way to receive an alert.  Hoping users don't have to close out and then send separate email. As you can probably tell, I'm not a FM expert.  Thanks so much.

create a server-side schedule that runs a FM script to pick up any new requests and send you an email.  You need to use the SMTP option of the Send Mail script step

or use OpenURL using the "mailto:" protocol.

 

Have a search through fmforums for 'mailto' or google it.
