email Question

Post by dunbarx » Tue Jun 14, 2022 8:27 pm

I pulled this from the LC part of stackOverFlow:
I want to send an email with Livecode but with MY email to MY OTHER email. This email contains a text and this text was write by a field in LiveCode. So I want to take this text and Send it with my mail to my mail. Do you understand ? I can not do it. Can you help me ?
It sounds like the OP wants to just send an email via LC. If you can answer here, I will post there. Or post there yourselves.

Hi Craig,

If on desktop I would suggest revMail, for mobile mobileComposeMail. Either should do what he/she wants. Perhaps there is a specific issue they are running into? I have found in the past that some mail providers will not send emails to your own email address (ie. to/from yourself) but this is not the case with the big operators. I just tried this on mobile with my gmail account and it worked fine.

Thanks, Mark. I sent your comments to the LiveCode pane at Stack Overflow.

The thread there was "closed" because the powers that be thought the original query incomplete and poorly presented. I found it perfectly sound, and said so. It is as if those in charge do not know what they are doing.
