Setting Mail Parameters by Code

Similar to the other export options, the parameters for sending by email can also be set. In the project properties, the user can already specify some mail parameters such as sender, recipient or subject, which are automatically used. See the chapter Project Parameters for further details. A couple of other options can be set or read using LlXSetParameter(..."<exporter name>"...) / LlXGet­Parameter(..."<exporter name>"...). Note that the exporter name may be left empty to address all export modules.

Export.SendAsMail: Activates sending of export files via email. This option corresponds to the checkbox "Send exported files by email" for the end user.

Export.SendAsMailAvailable: Enables you to hide the respective checkbox in the dialog.

Export.Mail.Provider: This option can be used to switch the mail provider. All options apart from Simple MAPI need the CMMX29.DLL.

If the DLL cannot be found, the mail will be sent using system Simple MAPI (MSMAPI).

The provider is selected by either setting it explicitly using this option or letting the user choose in the LsMailConfigurationDialog().

List & Label first of all tries to retrieve the application-specific mail settings from the registry. These can be set using LsMailConfigurationDialog(). If your application wants to support sending report results by email then you should provide the end-user a menu-item (or similiar) in which's handler you call LsMailConfigurationDialog() to enable the end-user to specify the mail settings. Note: Please set both export options Export.Mail.@Configuration.User and Export.Mail.@Configuration.Computer with the help of LlxSetParameter() to the identical value with which you called LsMailConfigurationDialog() to save the settings for mail sending individually in the registry.

Export.Mail.To: Recipient for the email.

Export.Mail.CC: CC- Recipient for the email.

Export.Mail.BCC: BCC- Recipient for the email.

Export.Mail.From: Sender of the email. Substitutes the sender's address (combination of "Export.Mail.SMTP.SenderName" and "Export.Mail.SMTP.SenderAddress") in the mail. However, "Export.Mail.SMTP.SenderAddress" will still be used for the SMTP protocol.

Export.Mail.ReplyTo: Target for reply email if different to "From" (SMTP only).

Export.Mail.Subject: Mail subject.

Export.Mail.HeaderEntry:Message-ID: Message-ID of the email.

Export.Mail.Body: Mail body text.

Export.Mail.Body:text/plain: Mail body text in plain text format. Identical to Export.Mail.Body.

Export.Mail.Body:text/html: Mail body text in HTML format (SMTP and XMAPI only). Optional, otherwise the mail will be sent with the text defined in Export.Mail.Body or Export.Mail.Body:text/plain.

Export.Mail.Body:application/RTF: Mail body text in RTF format (XMAPI only).

Export.Mail.SignatureName: The name of an Outlook signature or the path and file name (without file name extension!) of a signature file. Depending on body text type, the file name extension txt, rtf or htm will be appended.

Export.Mail.AttachmentList: Additional attachments (besides the export results) as tab-separated list ("\t", ASCII code 9).

Export.Mail.ShowDialog: Selection for sending the mail without any further user interaction.

Export.Mail.Format: Set the default for the file format selection dialog in the preview. Valid values are: "TIFF", "MULTITIFF", "LL", "XML", "XFDF", "XPS", "PDF", "JPEG", "PNG", "TTY:<emulation>", "EMF".

Export.Mail.SendResultAs: Allows the result of an HTML export to be sent directly as HTML mail text.

Export.Mail.SignResult:

Example:

This automatically sends the export result as email to the recipient selected via Project > Settings. The globally selected mail settings will be used. If you want to offer a default to your user, this can be done quite simply:

This example assumes that your database contains a field called EMAIL. If you want to preset a specific address, please note that you need to use single quotes, as the passed parameter needs to be evaluated as the formula:
