In the 'Send Mail' via SMTP Server script set, user is not allowed to set the password as a field when Authentication is set as 'Plain Password'. When user selects a field for the 'Password' it becomes blank after user closed the dialog.

5. for Password click on select and select any field
6. click OK

after this the field does not appear in place of password, i is just blank

field name should appear for password when user clicks inside the password textbox

Actual result

password field value is blank instead of selected field name

Workaround

I am opening the file in FileMaker 12 set the password as the required field and then open it in FileMaker 13
