hey matt, is send mail working? (yes, i'm still on b3) but, i was testing to see if send to multiple addresses was happening because i am still using apple mail for the second one, and i determined that none of the ones indigo is sending are getting out. the action bar shows sending, authenticating, done, etc. but i never get them.

what gives?

Hi dtich,

On previous versions of Indigo, I had to script these steps (approximately 10 lines) :

- create an action group with name, display in remote UI false
- add a step in action group and set up to Send email
- define 3 variables containing recipient, subject and body
- execute group
- delete action group

Now it is really fast ! It works great and I only have to script 3 variables and send email :

tell application "IndigoServer"

set adresseEmail to "Lalit <xxxx>" --(thanks for multiple recipients ! Just uses ; )
set sujet to "Coupure de courant"
set contenu to "Indigo a détecté une coupure de courant"

send email to adresseEmail with subject sujet with body contenu
end tell

thanks for the response lalit.

so, does that mean that the 'send email' action doesn't work in an action window, only in a script?? that doesn't seem... right.

i've got a script that works well, and fast, using apple mail, but i was under the impression that the send email action was now happening in indigo.... in the action window.

does anyone successfully use the send email action in the action pulldown menu?

Oh ! Sorry I thought you were talking about the new verb "send email" since Beta 5 !!!
Multiple recipient was not possible on previous versions (before Beta 4 I think).
So, for you I created an action group and added a step Send Email and set 2 recipients (xxxxx@xxx.fr ; xxxxx@xxx.fr), then I executed the action group and it worked like a charm !

Hi Dylan,

Email sending should be working. I haven't changed sending, with the exception of adding the new AppleScript verb, since we hit public beta with the exception of a minor update to the email framework version. I would expect you to see an error message if there was a problem and the "done" progress message doesn't happen until the message is out-the-door so to speak. Could your spam/junk filter be catching the messages on the receiving end? Try having Indigo on your system, through your SMTP server, send an email to indigo-support at perceptiveautomation.com and I'll let you know if I get it.

Regards,
Matt

will do matt.

my test action is two steps, one is send via indigo with send mail action in action window, step two is send via apple mail with embedded as and attachment script - what i have been using.

i sent to you, and to me. as it did last night i only get the one from apple mail, which i realized is what has been happening for a while now, i just had both things sending all alerts so it didn't register that i was only getting one of them....

if that makes sense!

i had set up indigo mail to send via actions so that when that was working i would start to see two alerts and know that i could stop using mail...

i feel like indigo send was working at some point, but it's a little fuzzy when that would have stopped...?? i'm unclear about it now...

I just received the copy from Apple Mail. Turn on LLIO and send me the Event Log results in an email and we'll see if we can figure out what is happening.

Regards,
Matt

One thing I just thought of: I have seen some ISP SMTP servers drop outgoing email messages if the Reply-to field does not match the email address for the SMTP account. Make sure the Reply-to email address, as defined in the Indigo prefs, matches what your SMTP server expects for that account.
