connect to mail server

[mohan]

Hi Antun,

How can i connect to the mail server from the laszlo server.
Here i have to send the mail from my application (laszlo) to user account (user E-mail ID ).

Thanks
Mallesh.

You'd have to write a server-side script to do this. Your best bet would be to have a dataset that's pointed to a .jsp file that accepts some details (say for example Recipient name, email and topic).

I would keep the email templates on the jsp if I were you - use the above "topic" to determine which email you want to send. That way you won't need to worry about get request length limits.

Hi Antun,

Regarding to our last question about "sending mail",
if i use serverside script and jsp for sending mail, then we have to use mail server (SMTP).So how can i interface this (smtp mail server) with laszlo sever.
Is it possible to do this without SMTP server? And how can i integrate "sending mail" with my lzx file.

I need more help on this.


Thanks alot
Mallesh
