Preconfiguration "Sending the e-mails by the application"

This preconfiguration can be activated when creating a new object (e.g. by "New object ..." in the local object menu or by pressing the Insert key after selecting the object) and is included in the group: "/ Communication / Protocols and other communications / Email".
This preconfiguration can be created in the object: PmaFolder or PmaRoot.

- The preconfiguration creates an object of the PmaFolder type containing the SendEmail method with the sTo, sSubject, sBody parameters. At the beginning, there are variables that set the SMTP server connection and at the end the "SendEmailCDO" method is called that send the message.

- The preconfiguration also includes a panel, but it is not necessary for sending messages. It contains Pmg objects used for entering the receiver e-mail address, the message subject and the message body. There is also a PmgButton object, that calls the SendEmail method with the defined parameters in the onButtonUp event..

- In the window that appears before the object is created, it is necessary to enter the information needed for SMTP server configuration and message sender identification.

- The preconfiguration is created including the panel (object of the PmaPanel type) is functional also a Web panel. In order to make the preconfiguration functional also on the Web, it is necessary to enable the object of the PmaPanel type for the Web (on the "Web server" tab).

The panel method SendEmail can be called anywhere from the application.

These configurators can be set before the preconfiguration is created:

The name of created object	Name of the object created in the tree of Pma objects. The maximum name length is 30 characters. This is a system name, so it must contain only alphanumeric and must not contain any diacritics (i.e. national dependent chars), empty string, spaces and the first character must not be a number. Default: "SendEmail"
