Embedded Files
Configuration Files
Defaults for MAILTOOL can be stored in a file in the IFS in JSON format.
The standard default file is /bvstools/mailtool/config/defaults.json.
You can create subdirectories for each user you wish to have unique defaults. For example, if user JSMITH wanted their own defaults file, you would create a subdirectory named /bvstools/mailtool/config/jsmith and place the defaults.json file in the subdirectory and set the defaults specifically for that user.
You can also use the mailtool_setValue function to set configuration file used. The variable name is "configuration_file". This is the only value that can be used before the mailtool_init function.
An example of the file is as follows:
{
"variables": [
{
"name":"from_email",
"default":" "
},
{
"name":"from_name",
"default":" "
},
{
"name":"subject",
"default":" "

Router Files
A router list for MAILTOOL can be stored in a file in the IFS in JSON format when the value for the Mail Router is set to *STMF.
The standard default file is /bvstools/mailtool/config/routers.json.
You can create subdirectories for each user you wish to have unique defaults. For example, if user JSMITH wanted their own defaults file, you would create a subdirectory named /bvstools/mailtool/config/jsmith and place the routers.json file in the subdirectory and set the defaults specifically for that user.
You can also use the mailtool_setValue function to set routers file used. The variable name is "mail_router_stmf".
An example of the file is as follows:
{
"mail_routers": [
{
"mail_router": "second.smtp.mail.com", Required
"from_email": "email@domain.com", Optional [email address] (Default: FROMADDR)
"perform_mx_lookup": "*NO", Optional [*YES, *NO] (Default: *YES)
"use_ssl": "*YES", Optional [*YES, *NO] (Defalt: *NO)
"smtp_port" : "465", Optional [SMTP Port] (Default: PORT)
"smtp_auth_user" : "userid", Optional [SMTP Authentication User] (Default: blank)
"smtp_auth_password" : "password", Optional [SMTP Authentication Password] (Default: blank)
"sequence": 10 Optional [Router Sequence] (DefaultL: 0)
},
{
"mail_router": "third.smtp.mail.com",
"from_email": "email@domain.com",
"perform_mx_lookup": "*YES",
"use_ssl": "*TLS",
"smtp_port" : "587",
"smtp_auth_user" : "userid",
"smtp_auth_password" : "password",
"sequence": 20
}
]
}
The value of *G4MS_XOAUTH can be used for the smtp_auth_user value to specify to use OAuth 2.0 authentication for your Outlook account. In this case the smtp_auth_password value does not need to be set.
The value of *G4G_XOAUTH is no longer available as Google has removed this option from their SMTP server.
