This question may not belong here. But people here can help.

I backup files for clients. After it is done, I run a power shell script to email clients and myself that backup is completed. Problem is that I have to put an email login/password in that script in order to do that. Obviously, this is not a perfect solution.

I have been thinking about various ways, e.g. write an exe file and hard code password. problem is that what if I need to change password.

Any suggestions? Thanks,
