I am using the following code to send a mail from inside a module: Mail.SendMail(_Sender, _To, "", _Subject, _MailBody, "", "HTML", "", "", "", "");

This works fine if the SMTP server does not require authentication. If is does the mail does not get sent. How can I retreive the SMTP authentication values which are set in the host settings?

If you have properly configured the SMTP authentication settings in the Host->Host Settings, passing empty strings as you have done should pull up the proper values for SMTPServer, SMTPAuthentication, SMTPUsername, SMTPPassword from host settings. It also appears that you have the correct order and count of parameters for this override of the SendMail method. Have you checked your host settings and tried sending a test email from the SMTP settings section of host settings?

Thank you for your reply. I think there was a problem with the mailserver because it is now working fine. I can confirm you can just provide the empty strings even if username and password are required. They get pulled from the host settings.

Thanks
