I have configured the SMTP settings in our NAV, and confirmed they work using the test function.
However I receive the error that states:
- The email address "" is not valid.
when I try sending an email from the Posted Sales Invoices page.
The steps I'm following are:
- Select a Posted Sales Invoice
- Click the Action Tab
- Click the email button, which brings up the Edit - Send Email
- Enter the To address, while testing I've just been sending the email to myself (which is exactly what I did when testing the SMTP settings).
- Added a short message
- unchecked Edit in Outlook (I also tested with the Edit in Outlook Checked, which worked, it brought up my Outlook account)
- Clicked Ok
At this point NAV tries to send the email but I get the error.
One thing I noticed is the from address doesn't get filled out in the pop window, since I know my to address is valid I'm think it must be related to the from address, but everywhere I've seen examples of this on the internet the from address was always blank.
Any insight on why this is happening would be greatly appreciated.
