Mail-Lib / #PB_Mail_Custom / #PB_Mail_From

[MC2015]

Hello,

can someone help me, please?

1) Has anyone an example with #PB_Mail_Custom?
2) The Recipient should see my Name (e.g. Sheldon Cooper) instead of s.cooper@tbbt.com. Possible?

Sorry, if I this has been discussed before, but I couldn`t find something...

Thank you!

1) Don't know, it's a very recent addition - just experiment with it.
2) I think that is down to how the name is defined, take a look at this post:

....it is not about the PB mail library but it covers a lot of mail issues.

PB 5.20 supports SMTP-AUTH (UserName and Password for the Mail Server).

Unfortunately, the email world has moved-on big time in recent years. Many Mail Servers, like Google Mail, now require encrypted communication using SSL/TLS. So, currently there isn't a complete mail lib available specifically for PB that would satisfy the requirements of a commercial app.

Thanks, I will take a look at that

But why is #PB_Mail_Custom not documented? Just one example would be helpful.
I thought, this could maybe be for changing e.g. the displayed name.
But all I always get some strings in the body

I thought it might be for other recipient types, i.e. cc, bcc
