Hi,

Thanks. I didn't knew the start-transcript command. Now I've added that into my real powershell script (not this test script), and I've got the following error on the log file.
"PS>TerminatingError(Send-MailMessage): "The running command stopped because the preference variable "ErrorActionPreference" or common parameter is set to Stop: Unable to read data from the transport connection: net_io_connectionclosed."
Error: Could not send email to Email address removed via smtp.office365.com"

I've searched for this error and it's related to TLS. But can't find a solution to overcome it. Do you have any idea on how to fix this issue?

Thanks
