SmartClient - E-mail

This training video shows how to use e-mail to send log files and other diagnostic information directly from the SmartClient application.
The demo uses Team Suite unit tests to ping then send e-mail through the Gmail SMTP server. (Team Suite is not required except for testing.)
E-mail is a simple solution to collecting end user information when they are likely to be only “occasionally connected”.

What is interesting about this video is that (you know) I cannot control the client’s email, I’d need passwords and the SMTP access.

SO I use GMAIL and use the client’s email address as the reply to if (s)he provides it..

This way I never touch the client’s personal stuff and there is no config on the client.

I use it to send comments, log files, and screen shots back to me.

Have fun

Hey Guys, (and I mean that in the gender neutral way)

SmartClient Email is fun & easy but while you're playing with it be sure to change the "Reply To" Address to you email address.. because

1) You won't know that it worked..

2) I don't need the extra email! (g)

Thanks

Pat

I watched the video and found it to be very interesting and just what I want. I downloaded it and got the following when I tried to open it.

"The project file 'C:\...\TestProject1.vbproj' cannot be opened. The project type is not supported by this installation."

So what installation is required?

Thanks, Lowell
