ah ok,

so i will try to increase this value because i'm using my program on a Terminal Server
on a (very) distant server which is very busy (about 50 TSE connection at the same time).

thank you gnozal for your support - very kind.

i will inform you after some tests.....

Ok, previous problem is now ok.

But now i'm wondering how i can use PureSMTP with a gmail account.

It needs a TLS secured authentification on port 25.

here is the response of the gmail server :

last code is: -3
last message is: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first

PureSMTP and PurePOP3 won't work with GMAIL.
The Google Gmail Server requires an encrypted connection (SSL). And this I don't know how to do (nor have time for this at the moment).
Sorry.

Hello gnozal,

How can i send Cc: (copies) ?

I tried to do it using AddHeader("Cc", "test1@test.com;test2@test.com") but it doesn't works.

If you add CC, can you also add BCC?

You can't (never thought of that)

If I add it, why not.

Maybe I will add it, if it doesn't imply to change the current PureSMTP_SendMail() syntax.

Yes please, i really need it for my work.
And it is just one more line in the header of the mail.

Ok, here it is, please test : http://freenet-homepage.de/gnozal/PureSMTP_BETA.zip (ANSI beta library for PB4)

To be compatible with the older versions, it works this way :
PureSMTP_SendMail(MailTo.s, MailFrom.s, Subject.s, MsgBody.s [, Attachments.s [, UserName.s [, Password.s [, HeaderAddon.s]]]])
To specify CC: or BCC:, just add "cc:" or "bcc:" before the address in MailTo.
Example : MailTo = "User1@Server1.fr;cc:User2@Server2.us;bcc:UserX@ServerX.ru"

If it works ok I will release the other library versions.

I've done just a few tests - all seems ok.

I would like to thank you for your kindness - once again.

Nice way of doing it.

gnozal · Post by **gnozal** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 2:32 pm

Thanks both

Update (both versions)

Changes :
- you can now add 'cc:' or 'bcc:' before the recipients addresses to enable carbon copy or blind carbon copy.

this last update is also ok.

Thank you gnozal for your excellent library.

I do have one question however: how can I send e-mail messages with non-latin characters (in particular Greek, with ISO page 8859-7) with attachments, without PureSMTP destroying the attachment?

I've tried PureSMTP_SetContentType("multipart/mixed; charset=iso-8859-7") together with PureSMTP_SetBoundary(), but I get the e-mail with the attachment in base64 form, inside the message body (i.e it can't be saved as an attachment).

Thank you very much for your help and efforts providing this library.
