Hi Aswani,

Did you try cloning the certified 'send email' command and taking it from there ?

Also, do you know how to send a csv as attachment in a command ? Was just trying to investigate that.

Thanks!

In the snapshot you sent you were missing a p in netapp and the smtp port was not 25 , but let suppose that is not the problem.

I would start with a telnet the smpt server on port 25 and manually try to send an email to see if the wfa server is authorized to send emails on the smtp sever.

I also checked mail option present in wfa configuration.

There i have given my smtpserver address it worked fine and i got mail to my outlook.

But i dont understand previous error.

Try changing this code :

$smtpClient = New-Object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient
$mailMessage = New-Object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage

        $smtpClient.host = $SmtpHost
        $mailMessage.To.add($To)
        $mailMessage.from = $From

$mailMessage.Subject = $Subject
$mailMessage.Body = "Email from WFA system:`n"

$smtpClient.Port = 25

Get-WFALogger -Info -message $("Sending email to " + $To)
$smtpClient.Send($mailMessage)
