Within a production, an outbound adapter is associated with a business operation that you create and configure. The business operation receives a message from within the production, looks up the message type, and executes the appropriate method. This method usually executes methods of the associated adapter.

The email outbound adapter (EnsLib.EMail.OutboundAdapterOpens in a new tab) provides settings that you use to specify the following:

  • The SMTP server to connect to and login details needed for that server, if any.

  • The default address to send email from (the From: header).

  • Recipients to add to any messages sent by the adapter, in addition to any hardcoded recipients.

It provides methods to do the following three actions:

  • Add a recipient to the To: list.

  • Add a recipient to the Cc: list.

  • Send a message.
