How to send a Email with NX102 or NA5 HMI

[Mikeaks]

Hallo Forum,

Is there someone there know if it is possible to sent a email directly from our PLC or the HMI? the only thing i could find on this topic was in this forum  http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?/topic/34283-sending-alarms-with-na-panel/
But we would like if there was a possibility to sent it directly from the plc instead of through a computer. 

If this is not possible do someone know if there is any ohter solution to sent email with out using a computer?

Here is another HMI headless unit that would be able to send out Emails.

Here is how the email will be programmed in the C-More unit.

Currently you must send it through a mail server.  There does not need to be an "extra" PC, you can use an existing mail server onsite.  If one does not exist, then yes, you would need to add  a PC at this point.

Thanks for the Answer,

Our customer do most of the time not have mail server, we thought about what else we could do and ended up with 2 option.

1) get a industrial pc
    

2) Use the Mail function in the Ewon flexy we already integrated in our system

so we went with option 2, most because of the price of a industrial pc and it will only have one task, as it is right now.
