Send a mail without mail program?

[thomaatje]

Is it possible to send a mail without a mail program?

and if it's possible, how?

thanks

[Jos]

Sure... check the Helpfile for _InetSmtpMail() ...

[thomaatje]

thats exactly what im looking for... but what do i put in $s_SmtpServer?

[Jos]

the SMTP server of your provider ....

[thomaatje]

hoe weet ik wat dat is??

(ja, ik ben een noob )

[Jos]

Die informatie kan je bij je provider opvragen.

Meestal krijg je 1-4 Email adressen bij je Internet aansluiting en zal je een van deze Email adressen moeten gebruiken samen met je provider's smtp hostnaam.

thx

Hoe zit dit met hotmail? Heb je voor hotmail ook een SMTP voor nodig?

[Jos]

Don't think Hotmail has a free Email service that includes authenticated SMTP. GMail does, but you will need to use _InetSmtpMailCom() UDf that I posted in the Examples forum since that requires a different Port and USerId/Password for authentication.

One thing you'll have to remember ... by using your internet provider smtpserver it will only work when the program is run from a network which is connected

to your internet provider.

Gmail requires a SSL connection and pop3

Hotmail requires SSL to but they dont have pop3

just info

Would be nice .. if this could be used to report back the error a program produces with the acknowledge of the user

[thomaatje]

That isn't hard to make.... just put the error into a log and mail the log using the _INetSmtpMailCom function.

[Emiel Wieldraaijer]

indeed .. but it's not what i ment..

i mean .. AutoIt produces and error .. in that error box report this error message to the author .. YES/NO

[thomaatje]

Yea, that would be nice
