Hi,

Try this :

function sendEmail()
{
       var properties = new Array();
       properties[0] = 'mail.smtp.host=smtp.gmail.com';
       properties[1] = 'mail.smtp.port=587';
       properties[2] = 'mail.smtp.auth=true';
        properties[3] = 'mail.smtp.username=<your gmail address>';
       properties[4] = 'mail.smtp.password=<your gmail password>';
       properties[5] = 'mail.smtp.starttls.enable=true';
       
        var msgText = 'test message';
        var success = plugins.mail.sendMail('tosomeone@gmail.com', 'fromsomeone@hotmail.fr', 'subject', msgText,null,null,null,properties);
        if (!success) 
        {
              plugins.dialogs.showWarningDialog('Alert','Failed to send mail','OK');
        }
}

hope this helps

Hi,

Is there any settings to avoid the mail to go into spam. Because all mail that I send from a gmail to gmail account goes to spam.
While gmail to others are working fine.

Thanks in advance

that’s strange… maybe there is something fancy in your body-content?

Hi JuanMartin

Try to set the appropiate “mail.smtp.from” int properties before sending the mail.

Yes indeed …strange to me too may be I am doing it wrong some were…I tried to send mail with empty body but same result…

Try to set the appropiate “mail.smtp.from” int properties before sending the mail.

added another property to set the “mail.smtp.from” but still into spam…

This is the function that am using to send mail…

function sendMail(to, subject, msgText) 
{
    var properties = new Array();
    properties[0] = 'mail.smtp.host=smtp.gmail.com';
    properties[1] = 'mail.smtp.port=587';
    properties[2] = 'mail.smtp.auth=true';
    properties[3] = 'mail.smtp.username=mymail@gmail.com';
    properties[4] = 'mail.smtp.password=password';
    properties[5] = 'mail.smtp.starttls.enable=true';
//    properties[6] = 'mail.smtp.from=mymail@gmail.com'

    var success = plugins.mail.sendMail(to, 'MyAPP<mymail@gmail.com>', subject, msgText, null, null, null, properties);
    return success;
}

Thanks… :)

yes… u were rite the mails were send into spam due to some body content…

With some hit n trial stuffs I found reason why my mails were send into gmail spam…

http://MyServer:8080/MyApp.html :- this creates problem.
So I replaced the whole thing with MyServer:8080/MyApp.html for all mails send to gmail only.

If am wrong do correct me …
Thanx…
