SMTP support

Post by Paul D » Tue Jun 26, 2012 11:29 pm

Does Livecode have SMTP support for Android? Basically I want to click a button and send an email to a static address with a simple date and time in the body. Something like this possible?

Sorry I should have been more specific... I don't want it to open up the email, allowing the user to freely edit the message. I want to click a button and it sends an email in the background.

There isn't any socket support yet, so you can't do it that way, but if you can setup a script on a webserver somewhere you can post to it and have the page that you post to send the email.
