WinAutomation provides you with an action that allows you to send emails ("Send Email" action under "Email" category). However, as soon as you have filled in the sender, the recipient, the subject and the body, you have to enter an SMTP server that will be used to send the email. The good news are that if you have a Gmail account, you can use the details of Gmail's SMTP server.
In order to use your Gmail account to send an email through WinAutomation, the “Send Mail” action's properties, "SMTP Server" tab should be configured as follows:
SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com
Server port: 587
Enable SSL: checked
SMTP server needs authentication: checked
User name: yourusername@gmail.com
Password: yourpassword

thank you very much for this Marios. Port 25 did the job

Hi, through the "Send Email" action, WinAutomation acts as a regular email client, therefore there is no difference based on the OS you are using, it works with any version of Windows. However in your case you may need to use port 465 instead of 587, or if this doesn't work either, you may try using port 25. Cheers, Mariosposted on Thu, 04/21/2011 - 04:57
