I fully understand that Safe wants to make the sending of Success or Failure emails in FME Flow Automations more granular. But the big issue for a lot of us users is that we are at a severe disadvantage due to limitations our IT faces with getting the whole SMTP info set up correctly in FME Flow Automations. For this reason alone, I think it would be useful for there to be a basic emailer that can provide us users with an option for actually being able to use FME Flow Automations and send the one thing we need … An email with success or failure info. As for our company (And I’m sure this is the case at a lot of companies) we can’t use FME Flow Automations and that’s a real waste considering we have a lot of uses for them. Sadly, the Emailer has become the major dealbreaker for us. It’s out of our control as users and wish there was a viable easy option to just have an emailer that can send without having to be tied to a company’s email server.

Can we get an FME Flow Basic Emailer?

Just to make sure I fully understand the request: are you asking for FME Flow to include a built-in mail-sending service that would go out without requiring any SMTP configuration on your end at all?
Sending an email always relies on a mail server at some point, and for several reasons (network considerations, IP and sender validation, SPF/DKIM/DMARC checks, avoiding being flagged as spam, etc.), FME Flow shouldn't embed its own mail server to send emails on your behalf without any SMTP configuration, if that's what you had in mind. Were you thinking of something else, perhaps?
