Emails from BPM to ISP profider

[jmannett (Jody Mannetter)]

Hello All,

I have several BPM and BAM’s that send out emails when conditions are meet. We don’t have an Exchange server, we just use an ISP. Everything was working okay then the ISP made some changes and now my emails will not go out. My ISP says it is because it is not a secure email? Is there a workaround for this? I’m sure the ISP is looking for a password, ports, SSL connection.

Thanks,
Jody

Can you setup a mail relay server?

Configure SMTP E-Mail in IIS 7 and higher

We use a service called SendGrid.com
Gives us a secure relay and provides some tracking for troubleshooting

Chris,

I’m not familiar with SendGrid.com. Do they have an API code for ABL that I can use in a BPM? Or how does that work?

Thanks,
Jody

The very pleasant @EarlGrei documented the recommended setup you are looking for if you use IIS.

Multilple E-mails without anonymous authentication

Is there a way to pass e-mail credentials different than one set up in the company configuration in order to send e-mails with addresses specific to the BPM? It allows you to type whatever you want in the “from” part, but if it isn’t the one set up in the company config with the authentication set up, office 365 won’t send the e-mail. We don’t really want anonymous authentication, but a few context specific from e-mails would be nice.

Hope this helps.

You purchase the Sendgrid.com service then you setup a sendgrid user to send emails to. They do the authentication and relaying. you simply set it up in Company Maintenance in Epicor.
