Okay I thought I might be on to something. FYI for those who struggle with
Gmail there are certain security settings that must be in place for free Gmail
or hosted Google account to receive SMTP traffic: Two factor authentication
must be off for the sending account, Access for less secure apps
Great info Ralph.

I spoof email "from" address all the time(legitimately) using LC server
using on-rev account. When testing I found out a few things
1) you must put "mailFrom:" in the email internet header. Example "Mailfrom:
xx...@y.on-rev.com" This is not seen by email clients. They see the
"From" but
I own both email addresses. Therefore I was sending it to myself.
Sorry for any confusion.
Thanks,

Oh, THAT is interesting! We test with free gmail accounts on copiers for
customers who either do not know their email server settings, or those who
don't have an email server. There are times we cannot figure out why they do
not get the email! Very likely it's because the sender address is the

Hi Alex,
Everything is fine now. It turned out that
my google email account was filtering out
the emails I was sending to myself.
To test the theory, I sent emails to my
yahoo account, and the email showed
up just fine. Thanks a lot Google! (NOT!)
Thank you Alex for your patience and

Thank you for trying that out!
It must be some difference in setup then.
I’ll get back to you when I know more.
Thanks again,

Hi Rick,
I copied / pasted that script from your mail into my LC server script,
and made two small changes ("To" address I changed from yours to one of
mine, and "From" address I changed to be within my domain), and tried
that. It worked fine, and I did receive the email.
So (just to check)
Hi Alex,
Ok, I tried going back to basics just to see
what I could get to work.
I managed to get the ReverseName function to work fine
all by itself in the server.
Then I tried the command mail shell method all by itself.
It looks like the code is executing, but I receive no email!

Hmmm - LC Server's error reporting can be frustrating and I'm not
sure what it is trying to say here.
All I can suggest is to try to take the problematic script and load it
as a script-only stack into the IDE and see if it can be tested out that
way - if necessary adding a few lines of

What about the sites that ask you to enter a new password after sending you a

Ah, yeah, sorry - careless of me.
Short answer : Yes.
Long answer :
function wrapQ pText
return quote & pText & quote
end wrapQ
function shellEscape pText
-- keep this at the end because it messes up Coda colouring
repeat for each char tChar in "\`!$" & quote
replace tChar with

Hi Alex,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Your suggestion of no password is interesting,
but in my particular case it isn’t the right solution
for me.
In the meantime, I took a step back from the work
that gave me an alternate insight as to how it
needs to work.
The main snag I’m working on now
It's kind of hard to answer that without knowing how your passwords are
set up and managed already, or what/how you need to use or check them.
So I won't answer directly, but offer a sideways suggestion
Don't have passwords.
Nearly all sites that have passwords offer some kind of
