I'm trying to send an email from an app and I'm not succeeding!
Maybe someone can help me?
(I do not want the email sending button to lead to an application that sends the email like the REVMAIL command but LIVECODE will send the email)
Thank you

Hi liveCode,

if you are using a commercial version of LC (Indy or Business) then you can use the tsNet external for this.
Find a lesson here: https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/6 ... t-external

If you are using the community version, check this library -> SMTP_library_demo.rev
Find it here: https://github.com/trozware/rev_stacks

Best

I have a LIVECODE of the community
I tried the second option you brought but for some reason I did not succeed

Maybe there is another way?
Thanks

gmail requires a secure connection.

So how do I solve this problem?

You can enable less secure apps in gmail. I don't use anything from Google, so I don't know where or how, but I'm sure you can google it

Answer from stackoverflow[DOT]com/questions/11737728/smtp-library-demo-on-livecode

I believe that smtp[DOT]gmail[DOT]com uses SSL. Sarah's library doesn't do this. You need to authenticate with your correct Gmail user name and password and you might want to try executing the LiveCode syntax

libUrlSetSSLVerification false

You need to do this before you start using Sarah's lib. I wonder if you also need to fiddle with the default headers. For this, you need to edit the script of the lib.

I still did not quite understand what I need to do for it to work

I have a shell script that sends email but I can't recall if Community supports shell. If so I'll find the handler and post it. Also, if the stack is for mobile it won't work; desktop apps only.

The community version supports the SHELL command
But she can not work on a cell phone
