Hello 

I am trying to send a email in BC and I get the following error. 

I have my own licence and I am trying to learn BC 

I have a Office 365 account but not a Exchange online account, could this be the issue?, I assume they are 2 different type of  accounts?

    Hello  Daniele

    Thank you for your reply.

    How would I set up a Exchange account and connect it to my BC account?

    Thanks

    Hi, Even if you don't have an Exchange online account license, you can use SMPT to set up your personal mailbox to test mail.

    Using SMTP
