If you ever need to send more than 1000 emails to non-MIT addresses per day, or if you may be accessing your database while connected to the VPN (required from off-campus), see Sending Authenticated Email below. In many cases you should be able to send email from FileMaker without having to authenticate to MIT's SMTP server using the settings shown here. For additional instructions on using the Send Email feature, please consult the FileMaker Inc.

This page shows you the settings for sending email via MIT's SMTP server, both unauthenticated and authenticated. However, if your FileMaker application sends large bulk mailings or otherwise needs to generate a lot of email, or if users may be logged onto the VPN, you should send authenticated mail.

The client machine must also be on the MIT network, but not connected via VPN. MIT's server limits the sending of unauthenticated mail to 1000 non-MIT recipient addresses per sending address, per day. The particular SMTP server used may either disallow or place limits on the sending of unauthenticated mail. When sending email using an SMTP server, you have the option of authenticating or not authenticating.

Sending email via SMTP server can be a useful option in that the user doesn't have to leave the FileMaker application during the process of generating email, and it eliminates any potential differences in behavior between the various email clients and how FileMaker interacts with them.

There are two native methods for sending email from FileMaker: via the user's default email client, and via an SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) server.
