If you're open to an "out of the box thinking" solution, I suggest considering an external web page with authentication. I think you're hitting the myriad of security settings that surround email and network communication and it's driving you crazy like it drove me crazy. In a past job of mine that deployed a VFP solution out to the field, we never knew what security measures we'd hit, and so we came up with this solution...
Well I have a pretty standard perl script for POSTing http form data to email. However, it seems to expect to use whatever generic SMTP server is available from the domain host. There's no way to specify an SMTP server for it.
Which might work, I suppose, though I don't know perl and wouldn't be able to modify the script.
Otherwise, I think your suggestion would still have me having to figure out how to talk to the SMTP server, or am I missing something?
