Detailed Description

A TCP/IP socket for the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.

When acting as a client, the procedure is to make the connection to a remote server, then to send a message using the following procedure: PSMTPSocket mail("mailserver"); if (mail.IsOpen()) { mail.BeginMessage("Me@here.com.au", "Fred@somwhere.com"); mail.Write(myMessage); if (!mail.EndMessage()) PError << "Mail send failed." << endl; } else PError << "Mail conection failed." << endl;

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PSMTPClient::PSMTPClient ( )

Create a TCP/IP SMPTP protocol socket channel.

The parameterless form creates an unopened socket, the form with the address parameter makes a connection to a remote system, opening the socket. The form with the socket parameter opens the socket to an incoming call from a "listening" socket.

PSMTPClient::~PSMTPClient ( )

Destroy the channel object.

This will close the channel and as a client, QUIT from remote SMTP server.

Member Function Documentation

bool PSMTPClient::BeginMessage ( const PString from,
const PString to,
PBoolean  eightBitMIME = false 
)

Begin transmission of a message using the SMTP socket as a client.

This negotiates with the remote server and establishes the protocol state for data transmission. The usual Write() or stream commands may then be used to transmit the data itself.

Returns
true if message was handled, false if an error occurs.
Parameters
fromUser name of sender.
toUser name of recipient.
eightBitMIMEMesage will be 8 bit MIME.
bool PSMTPClient::BeginMessage ( const PString from,
const PStringList toList,
bool  eightBitMIME = false 
)
Parameters
fromUser name of sender.
toListList of user names of recipients.
eightBitMIMEMesage will be 8 bit MIME.
virtual PBoolean PSMTPClient::Close ( )
virtual

Close the socket, and if connected as a client, QUITs from server.

Returns
true if the channel was closed and the QUIT accepted by the server.

Reimplemented from PIndirectChannel.

PBoolean PSMTPClient::EndMessage ( )

End transmission of a message using the SMTP socket as a client.

Returns
true if message was accepted by remote server, false if an error occurs.
bool PSMTPClient::LogIn ( const PString username,
const PString password 
)

Log into the SMTP server using the mailbox and access codes specified.

Login is actually attempted only if the server supports SASL authentication and a common method is found

Returns
true if logged in.
Parameters
usernameUser name on remote system.
passwordPassword for user name.
PBoolean PSMTPClient::OnOpen ( )
protectedvirtual

This callback is executed when the Open() function is called with open channels.

It may be used by descendent channels to do any handshaking required by the protocol that channel embodies.

The default behaviour is to simply return true.

Returns
Returns true if the protocol handshaking is successful.

Reimplemented from PIndirectChannel.
