That's backwards, try this:
name1code
And with a tab stop, you may not need a custom property!
Fields can hold more content than what meets the eye.

Do you really need "folder" and "code" spelled out?
Redundant
Hi Bob,
This is very interesting, thank you.
Thanks all - I now have four routes to investigate!

Hi Paul,
Some years back Scott Rossi created a nifty little demo called GetInLine that
shows how to do the interface part of drag-reordering. It’s in his archive at
http://tactilemedia.com/blog/2018/05/12/blasts-from-the-past/. It might give
you a good foundation, even if you don’t use the
Aha! I didn't know that curl did SMTP.
Thanks Matthias (and thanks Douglas, SwithMail looks like a good alternative).

I have a scrolling list field that has contents like:
name1
name2
nameA
name3
name4
name5
nameB
name6
name7
nameC
name8
etc.
the field has a custom property with the contents and a "type" for each

I had a very similar problem recently (although I was *not* using LC for the
email processing). I found a small but great *free* shareware app called
"SwithMail" by "tbare" which solved the same issue of needing TLS support.
It's reasonably small (550 Kb) yet has a rich feature set. I'd suggest

So instead of calling the libSMTP library you create the email according to RFC
to have correct smtp headers and sent it using curl through the shell()
function.
A very venerable app (original version perhaps 15 years ago) is still running
on a client's Windows box, every night, processing data and emailing a report.
The email is sent using Shao Sean's libSMTP library, which has performed
faithfully for all these years. Unfortunately, the client's
