Connecting to an SMTP Server

[BoomerGuy]

Hello,

We are now using the Trial Version of EL at my workplace. My boss likes it (I gave him a demo yesterday), but so far we have only one question.

Our software is installed at businesses that will typically be using MS 2003 Server, and MS Exchange for mail (as do we). Some of them have domains within their company, and some (like us) do not. If I want to access my mail through the internet from home, I can use Web Outlook and specify the direct IP address.

So my question is this: What should I put in the "From" address box under the Email Send Options, if I'm using MS Exchange with no domain name?

TIA,

-Don

If you fill this field at design-time then you must insert a valid email
address, otherwise you can simple insert it at run-time using the following code:



CurrentEurekaLogOptions.SMTPFrom := 'your free text here!';




PS: however this field is only indicative to just identify the email sender when
the mail is send via SMTP server.

I hope to have answered to your question otherwise don't hesitate to recontact
to me, ok? :)

I was looking for something much more complex - you've made it very simple. Thank you!
