- Thread-topic: 24U E-mail OSAX
I downloaded a copy of 24U E-mail OSAX to see if it was a viable solution for a problem I'm trying to solve and it worked flawlessly the first time I tried it. I then went on to script other parts of the project and now I'm ready to implement the email part and I ran another test of the OSAX to verify that it would work before I went ahead and paid the shareware fee, but now all of the sudden any script which uses the send email command (including the sample scripts provided with the OSAX) hangs irretrievably and ultimately crashes my machine. Anybody out there use this OSAX and know of any specific issues with it and more importantly how to solve them. I checked their website and there was some vague info about issues with MacTCP, but it wasn't terribly informative or helpful. I'm on MacOS 9, AS 1.8.3, 24U Email OSAX 2.2 and I'm only vaguely familiar with the inner workings of SMTP and TCP/IP and what-not, so HELP!!!... There's also the added wrinkle of corporate firewalls and proxy servers which may or may not have anything to with the problem. I do know that these guys crank down hard on any FTP traffic with the outside world so maybe my first SMTP test alerted them to a chink in their armor and they welded it shut. I don't know I'm stabbing in the dark here.
Alternately, anybody know a way to send email from an Applescript via Microsoft Exchange server without using a Microsoft Outlook client (I wasn't trying to use 24U to send email via Exchange, by the way - I originally tried 24U to avoid Exchange and make use of an SMTP server located elsewhere that I happen to have an account on).
