Emailing through Google (RB 14.05 & XE2)

edited January 2013 in General
Hi,

We have RB 14.05 and XE2 and trying to use the SMTP feature to email
reports using a GMail account. The problem that we are having is that
it will work properly the first time, but then it will do one of two
behaviours:

If we try to resend immediately, the program will wait (apparently
indefinitely) for the Report.SendEmail to return. If you force the
program to close, it will send properly again when you run the program
again.
If we close the form that we did the email from, and go back to
send another one, the Report.SendEmail will return immediately (as
opposed to 5-10 seconds) but no email will be sent. It neither shows up
for the recipient, nor shows up in the sent items in GMail, like a
successful one will. If you close the program and reopen it, you will
consistently get the same issue, it does not send again until a system
restart.

One program can be having the first issue (a test application, which i
can provide) while another program (our main product) can be
experiencing the second issue. This is a problem that causing great
consternation to our clients and we are eager to help find a solution.

Thanks in advance!
