Hi sushi,

What does not work with the snippet? I use it on a daily basic. Are you using a registered version on PB? Did you change the mail server info to your own mail server?

(The version on the Resource Site requires the ASM Library "String2" to be installed... I just updated it so this is not required)

I use aregistered version of PB with the latest updates.

My mailserver requires a password. I tried to do it like:

sendmail ("sushi:[url]mailto:password@mail.something.xyz[/url]","[url]mailto:sushi@sushiland.com[/url]","james t. kirk","test","test")

That's wrong, hm?!

Can't help you here... I've never come across a SMTP mail server that required a password to send mail.

Anyway, your connection is not made until
OpenNetworkConnection(mailserver,25) > 0

Did you try just using the name of your mail server?
Maybe OpenNetworkConnection() does not handle password info? Ask Fred this one.

Hi,

I have a little PB program which may help you, but I don't have it here (phone line cut AGAIN). I'll post it asap. Manolo has a copy, maybe he can send it to you (he had the same problem).

Bye,

With some mailserver it is necessary to call up Mails (POP3) before emails can be send!

You can find further informations in the rfc-list

themes: smtp (RFC 821) and pop3 (RFC 1081,1082)

Look for the statements, you need to connect and communicate with a pop3-mail-server.
