Hi I use CDO to send emails via my Gmail address and it works just sweet When I try the same with an email address some...@outlook.com, it fails every time with a message The transport failed to connect to the server (error 1429)
With Gmail, the port number is 465. From my research, Outlook.com uses 587 or 25 I think Outlook requires TSL but I don't see that option with CDO I've tried the smtpserver as smtp-mail.outlook.com as well as smtp-mail.live.com This same process (below) works well with an internal Exchange server. (Winkiss is a table) TRY Local lcSchema, loConfig, loMsg, loError, lcErr lcErr = "" lcSchema = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/" loConfig = Createobject("CDO.Configuration") With loConfig.Fields .Item(lcSchema + "smtpserver") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt15) .Item(lcSchema + "smtpserverport") = winkiss.portnum .Item(lcSchema + "sendusing") = 2 .Item(lcSchema + "smtpauthenticate") = .t. .Item(lcSchema + "smtpusessl") = winkiss.usessl .Item(lcSchema + "sendusername") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.usersig) .Item(lcSchema + "sendpassword") = ALLTRIM(winkiss.empw) .Update Endwith loMsg = Createobject ("CDO.Message") With loMsg .Configuration = loConfig .From = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt17) .To = ALLTRIM(winkiss.opt17) .Subject = "Test subject" .TextBody = "Testing SMTP emailing, from myself to myself" .Send() Endwith etc Does anyone have suggestions -- Kind regards, Sytze de Boer --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cag1nny8xvsx1ibxzpgi8pgeb7uthgyh862ha2uajgyflndo...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
