David,

If you don’t have to do it through that account, you map be able to use AWS SES.

Subject: 4DIC - Hiding the authentication username in outgoing emails

I posted a question on this topic a while back but didn't find a solution, so I 
am posting again...

In a 4D v15 application for Windows I want to use just one gmail account for 
authenticating all outgoing emails, but allow a variety of senders to send 
emails that are seen in the recipients' email clients as coming from the 
senders' individual accounts, not from the authentication account. I haven't 
found a way to do that. The following combination of values results in the 
SMTP_Auth username showing up as the sender in the recipient's email client:

SMTP_Auth username: auth-em...@gmail.com
SMTP_From: from-em...@gmail.com
SMTP_Sender: from-em...@gmail.com
SMTP_ReplyTo: from-em...@gmail.com

Is there a way to do this?
David

I would think not. That probably is against google rules or any email that 
needs authentication. Think of it this way. You have a gmail account and 
authenticate but you want to send email as someone else and hide who you are. 
Sounds like spammers dream


You could send all from one email and change displays name and set a different 
reply to

Regards

Chuck

RE: 4DIC - Hiding the authentication username in outgoing emails

[Timothy Penner via 4D_Tech]

I don’t know if that is possible with Google's GMAIL service (via SMTP). Sure, 
the GMAIL website may allow you to do something similar, after going through 
some hoops to authorize the other senders, but I don’t think that same feature 
carries over to SMTP.

I think the best you can do is set the Reply-To address. This will NOT replace 
the sender, but will add a Reply-To header, triggering the email client to 
Reply-To the address specified and not the sender.
