Thanks for your response and the project file
We also have PM583 ETH with TB511

I have changed its hardware and then the SMTP configuration of SMTP Client as per my Gmail account

In the Codesys I have only changed the "to" and "cc" address and I have downloaded the program into the PLC and made it enable I got 12313 error code and as an error occurred the mail is not sent

I have 2 questions

1. Do I have to change anything more in the Program rather than I described above to sent mail?
2. If I want to customize the mail
eg: when input is high It should send a mail to the appropriate person with customized message content and if another one got high then also it should be sent a mail to another person with another content of a message

How can I do that?

It's my first try in SMTP with AC500 hope you understand me as a newbie and explain as well

thanks in advance

You need a SMTP relay, with a well known host IP address to to this
if you follow the guide I've found in "PM583-ETH V2.1 Send Email via SMTP"

I'm impressed if this has been worked in the first place, for long time.
Using an almost static IP address, to connect to a server, is generally a bad idea

The IP address from your SMTP (any ) host may change in future !

As product ? unfortunately no. (*)

I've checked the usual firewall appliance for this.
I'm was very impressed that one $vendor add extra
complexity to a simple email.
You need a PDF reader to read your *secure* mail.

Anyway you need also some kind of "firewall" to connect your
AC500 to the big bad internet, if not you will have some more problems.
I knew some devices can be reflashed to to this.
But this not for the faint of heart

(*)
I'm a enduser on 800xA and open source programmer on kernel
side and will not add extra complexity to my mind/brain.
