Description of the issue

Random error 1506 when using the Send Mail via SMTP script step.

Steps to reproduce the problem

It's random. Most of the time the Send Mail works fine, but occasionally it fails with error 1506, even though all the input data is the same.

Workaround

What's needed is more specific error reporting for the Send Mail script step. Ideally if the transcript of the communication between Filemaker and the email server was saved, it would indicate the reason the email was rejected by the server.
