Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I wrote a report using HTML stuff to compile the data and send that as table through Email. Everything is good except that i am getting following error,

The SMTP mail system returned the following error: "The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.57 SMTP; Client was not authenticated to send anonymous mail during MAIL FROM

This is the SMTP setting in NAV.

Hi,

please check if you have defined the Sender Email when creating the message (when calling smtp.CreateMessage function)

Hello,

Please send us the code you are using for sending the email. It looks like you are not using the sender address while sending the email.

check if there is a mail address set in usersetup for the users.

check if the mail addresses can be used with the used smtp server (valid accounts).

check if account/password are valid for login at the used smtp server.

Hi,

The Sender and receipient both are there.

Below is the Code,

Purch. Rcpt. Line - OnPreDataItem()

CLEAR(SMTPMail);

SMTPSetup.GET;

//SETRANGE("Posting Date",WORKDATE);

Recipients:= 'ABC@CorpXY.com';

Subject := 'Expense Receipt Notification' + ': ' + FORMAT(WORKDATE);

Body := 'Following Items are received on :' + FORMAT(WORKDATE);

CLEAR(SMTPMail);

SMTPMail.CreateMessage('XYZ',SMTPSetup."User ID",Recipients,Subject,'',TRUE);

SMTPMail.AppendBody('Hello,');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<br><br>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<h1>'+ Body + '</h1>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<br><br>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<table border="1">');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<tr>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Document No.</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Order No.</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Item No.</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Description</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Quantity</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Unit Cost(LCY)</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<th><b>Amount(LCY)</th>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('</tr>');

Purch. Rcpt. Line - OnAfterGetRecord()

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<tr>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT("Document No.") + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT("Order No.") + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT("No.") + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT(Description) + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT(Quantity) + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT("Unit Cost (LCY)") + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<td>' + FORMAT("Unit Cost (LCY)" * Quantity) + '</td>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('</tr>');

Purch. Rcpt. Line - OnPostDataItem()

SMTPMail.AppendBody('</table>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<br><br>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('Thanks ');

SMTPMail.AppendBody(' ');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<br><br>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('<hr>');

SMTPMail.AppendBody('This is system generated mail. Please do not reply to this mail id.');

SMTPMail.Send;

When i use my ID as user Id in SMTP setup, its working but when i give a particular Notification id, than we have the above error. but this ID is working fine when sending Approval Emails with in NAV.

Hi,

when you create the message (extract from your code):

SMTPMail.CreateMessage('XYZ',SMTPSetup."User ID",Recipients,Subject,'',TRUE);

the second parameter has to be an actual e-mail, and you're passing the User ID. What you need to do is something along those lines:

UserSetup.GET(SMTPSetup."User ID");

UserSetup.TESTFIELD("E-Mail");

SMTPMail.CreateMessage('XYZ',UserSetup."E-Mail",Recipients,Subject,'',TRUE);

Hope that helps.
