The site is not down, and I have no problems downloading. Maybe a firewall / antivirus problem ?
Anyway, you can also try PureArea (may not be the latest version though) : http://www.purearea.net/pb/english/userlibs.php

thanks - I'm still getting the problem though (well, not with the 3.91 version, but definitely with the 4.x one). Doesn't appear to be a firewall problem.

oh well - thanks for the effort guys, I'm sure the lib would have been perfect

guess I'll have to remake the wheel

ahh - nevermind, I managed to find it here --> http://www.purearea.net/pb/download/use ... eSMTP_.zip

Hi gnozal,

I currently use your library on a PB3.94 project. It works fine, but some people ask for using SSL/TLS for sending e-mails (especially those who are using gmail.com). Is it possible to send and receive e-mails using SSL/TLS? Actualy, only sending is important for me.

I don't know which API's you are using, but maybe it is possible to use InternetOpenUrl_() with the #INTERNET_FLAG_SECURE flag to connect to the server?

regards,

Kukulkan

I don't use WinAPI, only the purebasic network library functions.
And I don't know the SSL/TLS protocol (I don't know if it's even possible without API).

The SSL protocol is well known and documented all over the web, but it is a huge bunch of work to implement this by yourself. The windows-API provides all functions needed to connect using SSL if you are using InternetOpen_(), InternetOpenUrl_() and InternetReadFile_() to manage your connections (instead of the PB functions). Bad news is, that this will only work using windows.

Hi gnozal, many thanks for your nice library.

Could it be possible to add a Trace command for SMTP, as you did in PurePOP3? This could be extremely useful in troubleshooting various problems I came across while using SMTP servers.

Many thanks in advance.

I will think about it. Note that you can use PureSMTP_GetLastServerMessage() to get some information if something went wrong.

Unfortunately, PureSMTP_GetLastServerMessage() returns nothing, but the message is not sent

What error does PureSMTP_SendMail() return ?

No error.

You mean you use PureSMTP_SendMail(), the mail is not send, you get no error (PureSMTP_SendMail() returns #PureSMTP_Ok) and PureSMTP_GetLastServerMessage() returns "" ?
That's strange ... because this means the server does not answer anything so PureSMTP_SendMail() should return #PureSMTP_ServerTimeOut.
The beta library available here http://freenet-homepage.de/gnozal/PureSMTP_BETA.zip creates a log file "PureSMTP_TRACE.txt".

Exactly like that.

Will try tonight the beta version and post what it returns.

Hello gnozal,

I have an idea for puresmtp.

When using PureSMTP_SendMail with attachment files, it can take some times to finish the operation depending of the size of the attached files.

So i think that the programmer might need to know and display the progress.
It can be done with a user-defined callback, something like this :

Code: Select all

Procedure.l PureSMTP_MyCallback(Percent.l, ServerStatus.l, ServerMessage.s)
  
  Debug "Progress: " + Str(Percent) + " %"
  
EndProcedure

PureSMTP_SetCallback(@PureSMTP_MyCallback())

PureSMTP_SendMail([........])
