You can access the Email Configuration options from the menu Tools » Options.

Choose an email transport account or program to use for emailing your kml files.

None

You will be asked to configure the email transport when you try to email your kml file.

Use Outlook

If you are using Outlook as your email client, a new email message will be created and will open but the email is not automatically sent. This is ideal if you plan to add recipients from your Outlook Contacts List.

Use my default email account

Your default email account will be used. Just your email provider SMTP server name and your email address are required. The Email can be the email address ie: mymailbox@myemailserver.com or it can include the friendly name portion ie: My Mail Box<mymailbox@myemailserver.com>.

For example, in Outlook you can find this information as follows:

1. Open Outlook
2. In the menu Tools » E-mail Accounts... select View or change existing e-mail accounts option then click Next.
3. Select the email address you wish to use from the list of email accounts then click Change...
4. Write down the E-mail Address and Outgoing mail server (SMTP) found under the User Information and Server Information sections then click cancel to close Outlook dialog without saving any changes.
5. Click the Use my default email account option then write down the information of step 4.

Use this account

Use this option if you do not have an email client program configured on your computer or when you want to send kml files using a different email address.

You may need to ask your email service provider for this information.

User Name
the email account user name. This is usually the email address.

SMTP server

Password
The password used to connect to your mail box. If no password is provided, a dialog box will ask you for the password when you try to email your kml file.

Remember password
When checked and a password is provided, the password is encrypted and saved into you private KML Editor Configuration file.

Requires SSL
Your provider requires that the communication between your computer and the email server be encrypted. When unchecked, your user name and password are sent over the Internet as plain text, that is, not encrypted.
