Outbound email connector

When to use this connector

To send emails, you need to create an Outbound Email Connection.

Read how to send emails in the Etlworks Integrator.

Create a Connection

Start creating an Outbound Email Connection by opening the Connections window, clicking +, and typing mail into the filter field in the Select Connection Type  gallery, then selecting Outbound Email.

Connection parameters

• Host: the outbound email server host.
• Port: the outbound email server port.
• User: the user name.
• Password: the password.
• Start TLS: if true, this enables the use of the STARTTLS command (if supported by the server) to switch the Connection to a TLS-protected Connection before issuing any login command.
• Enable SSL: if true, the Etlworks Integrator will use the SSL port by default.
• From: the from email address.
• To: the to email address.
• CC: the cc email address.
• BCC: the bcc email address.
• Subject: the email subject.
• Message: the message body. If an outbound email Connection is used in a source-destination pair, the message body will be automatically populated as part of the FROM - TO transformation.
• Header: an optional header that will be added before the message body.
• Footer: an optional footer that will be added after the message body.
• Folder: the name of the folder on the email server to copy the message to.
• File: the name of a file to attach to the message.
• Content Type: an optional email content type, for example, text/ HTML.
• Content Encoding: optional character encoding for the message body. Use it when you wish to re-encode the message (for example, to UT-8). No encoding means there will be no additional encoding.
• Properties: additional comma-separated Connection properties in a key-value Format. Read more about JavaMail Connection properties.
