Got it. this worked for me

Have you tried CrLf (chr(13) + chr(10)) ?
EDIT you're to fast

Works great now

Library update (see first post or thread)
Changes :
- added function PureSMTP_POP3Messages(POP3Server.s, POP3Port.l, POP3UserName.s, POP3UserPassword.s)
Returns number of e-mails at POP3 server [>= 0 , else is error code]

Kewl, soon, if you add a few more features, we can use this single lib to create a full email client *S*

Keep 'em coming bud.

Or my own, customized, spam blocker *dreaming*

He he he that is actually something I am currently planning.
My own little tray-icon spam filter

Then you will need to also look at the POP3_Library at http://forums.purebasic.com/english/viewtopic.php?t=11136


I know you have already been there since we conversed in that thread.

You may also want to look at http://forums.purebasic.com/english/viewtopic.php?t=12767
to see how I used POP3_Library to view the contents of my POP3
mailbox without downloading anything. Makes it easy to delete the spam
using something akin to a WebMail handler.

It isn't technically a spam filter, but it may give you some ideas.

Thanks Terry.
Your help with the POP3 lib has been very valuable
And thanks for the link *S*

Hey, maybe we could start some OpenSource projects here?
We could start with a great spam filtering system, then build a cool email client. And maybe even a bundle package with FTP and other usefull apps

Hi GeoTrail and all,

I have tried this very usefull lib and it works fine.
However, I noticed that it creates a thread that is never released/killed (why not), but I noticed also that my RAM usage for the app was nearly the double and was never released too after to have sent a single email.

Is there any memory freeing and sanity check in the code ?
Can't you close the additional thread ?
(apparently, by killing manually this thread within the app process, the memory is not released either).

I am just trying to help to improve this very handy lib

regards.

AFAIK, there is no thread in the library and the allocated memory should be released. Did you use the PureSMTP_CloseSMTPConnection() function ? It frees the allocated memory.

Yes I use it upon sucessfull connection Only.

However I am calling all the mail functions stuff from a thread I have created myself, could it be the problem ?

I mean there is the program running, (1 thread), I create another thread which does various functions, and from this thread I send a mail and I close the SMTP connection, but an additional thread is still created and is kept in memory, and the RAM usage has growned twice.

I'll try to submit a working source code when I will have the time.

EDIT : Windows XP SP2

Will SMTP Authentication be implemented in the future?

EDIT: I found a REALLY good explaination for the authentication process here:
http://www.winsockvb.com/forums/printthread.php?t=1369

There is the PureSMTP_OpenPOP3ThenSMTPConnection() function, wich opens connection to POP3 server (authentification) and then to SMTP server. Does it no work for you ?

No it doesn't work for me.

I belive the SMTP Authentication will become more and more popular.
