With Outlook 5.02 and 5.03, there's a setting in the account preferences in
Outlook to set the:
SMTP service requires secure connection (SSL)
and
SMTP server requires authentification
I'd like to write an AppleScript that looks for an account called "Home", and
sets those 2 checkboxes to true. (It's a POP account).
Checking the Outlook Express dictionary, I see under "POP account":
POP requires SSL boolean -- true if an SSL connection is needed for the
POP server
SMTP requires SSL boolean -- true if an SSL connection is needed for
the SMTP server
I haven't quite mastered yet how to map the dictionary commands into a
working script. What I'm thinking it would be, is something like:
tell application "Outlook Express"
if POP account "Home" exists
set POP requires SSL of POP account "Home" to true
set SMTP requires SSL of POP account "Home" to true
end if
end tell
Can anyone help me with the syntax?
