Email the Current Plan
Available from the File Menu See also: DNS and Host name information Authentication
If you have an internet connection, you can attach the current plan to an email message and send it. The recipient will need a copy of Home Plan Pro to be able to use the plan.
The plan file (on your hard drive) will be attached to the email message.
You can add any other files using the "Attach New File" button.
Click the "Send" button.
Tip: Advise the recipient to save the plan to their hard drive before loading it into Home Plan Pro.
Although the current plan is automatically added to the "Attach File" list, you can attach any other files (or none at all) to the email message. (change the "File Type" on the open file dialog to "All Files")
You might want to export a plan to a DXF file, or a bitmap and attach that to the message for folks who don't have Home Plan Pro on their machine.
NOTICE: Note the Use Dynamic DNS and Use ISP Hostname choices.
Use Dynamic DNS uses a built-in email server so you don't have to enter your ISP information. Some recipient's ISP's will reject email sent from such an email server as a anti-spam measure. If you are unable to send emails to your recipients with this method, you will have to select The other method.
Use ISP Hostname This method uses your own internet service provider. You will have to enter your provider's host name. This is the hostname you enter in your email client. Examples are: smtp.comcast.com or mail.msn.com or smtp.aol.com
A few providers require authentication before you can send email. Most do not.
If your provider requires authentication, check the "Use Email Authentication" checkbox and enter your username and password .
