SendMail Crashes FM13

[JTSmith]

I have 2 machines, the one remotely using my FM13 Advanced copy never had any issues.  The computer died, and I moved FM13 to a new machine with Windows 8 and Outlook 2013.  Every time the SendMail script runs it crashes FM on that machine.  It opens Outlook, and as soon as you hit Send on the email, FM sticks constantly with the "thinking" spinning circle until it crashes.  

 

I setup a test file which simple had a SendMail blank script, same problem.  

 

Any idea on what the problem could be?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  

 

***Update, Outlook 2013 is 32bit.

I had a similar issue with FM13 on W7 and Office 365 (Outlook 2013) a while ago. It appears to be an issue with Outlook 2013 which handles inter app communication differently. The only way I found to get it to work was to use a "mailto:" url like this:

 

  Open URL [No Dialog; "mailto:&subject=" & $Subject & "&body=" & $Body]

 

You can also specify the To and From if you wish or leave it to the enduser to specify. The only catch is that Outlook needs to be your default mail app. Other than that it works a treat.

Thanks.  My issue is I have attachments that I use with SendMail...  I have reasons why I can't use server send, I need it to open in the client.  Not sure how to fix it.  I have Outlook 2013 on my main machine, but not Windows 7.  Stressful...  Thanks for the help though, unless you know how to configure an attachment with Open URL...

In that case, try something like this:

 

Open URL [No Dialog; "mailto:&subject=" & $Subject & "&body=" & $Body & "&attachment=hostpathtofile"]

 

Apparently this only works for local files, but that shouldn't be an issue in your case.
