The objects available within our connector are accessible from the "cdata.email" module. To use the module's objects directly:

1. Import the module as follows:
   

   import cdata.email as mod

2. To establish a connection string, call the connect() method from the connector object using an appropriate connection string, such as:
   

   mod.connect("Port=993;Server=outlook.office365.com;Password=password;User=user;Protocol=IMAP;SMTP Port=587;SMTP Server=smtp.office365.com;")

The User and Password properties in the Authentication section must be set to valid credentials. The Server must be specified to retrieve emails and the SMTPServer must be specified to send emails.

Deprecation notice for Gmail users

From May 30, 2022, Google no longer supports the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password. There are alternatives that allow your continued use of our Email drivers to connect to your Google account, which is why Gmail-specific columns, pseudo-columns, and stored procedures are only getting deprecated. We recommend you move to our Gmail drivers that offer more secure methods of authentication.
