Smtp Mailer That Supports Html And Attachments.

[jaberwacky]

Is this a bug?

If Number($IPPort) = 0 Then $IPPort = 25

Should it be:

If IsNumber($IPPort) = 0 Then $IPPort = 25

Well, ok, I think I understand. If someone supplies a string then it gets converted to an int?

Ok, I experimented with this:

$Result = Number(42)
MsgBox(0, "Number", $Result)
MsgBox(0, "VarType", VarGetType($Result))

$Result = Number("42")
MsgBox(0, "Number", $Result)
MsgBox(0, "VarType", VarGetType($Result))

$Result = Number("a")
MsgBox(0, "Number", $Result)
MsgBox(0, "VarType", VarGetType($Result))

Which seems to support my conclusion.

Not sure what the issue is you are having and are trying to solve?

The current If makes sure that the supplied $IPPort is a valid number not equals to zero to ensure a proper port number is supplied to the CDO.

Yeah no, I answered my own question but thanks for taking the time to respond though. Appreciate that.

I want to thanks Jos because his smtp mail script solved a great problem for me.

I was using another script for smtp mailing, but that script ceased to function with version of Windows above XP.

So I start to use the "native" function of autoit _INetSmtpMail , that is ok for normal mail.

But I have to send SMS (short messages) with an appliance by Quescom, (an ip device with some SIMs capable of making calls and send SMSs).

This device accept to send SMS if it receive an email using :

server : the ip of the device

from address : indifferent

to address: gateway@quescom.it

subject : indifferent

body of the mail: SMS=333888999 TEXT=my short message.

You can of course configure Outlook and thunderbird and start to send SMS

But _INetSmtpMail wan't work.

The mail is sent, smtp trace all OK, but the sms is not sent, I know the Quescom and for me the body is not correct

I suspect that _INetSmtpMail add some tipe of character(s) in the body of the mail, but I don't know how to resolve this.

By now I use your script Jos.

There can be easily added support for Priority property

it's similar to Importance property which is already implemented.

$objEmail.Fields.Item ("urn:schemas:mailheader:priority") = 1

values are:

[1,0,-1] = [cdoPriorityUrgent, cdoPriorityNormal, cdoPriorityNonUrgent]

I am removing the content of my original post as I have resolved the while/wend issues I was having.

However, I do now have a question about how the $body variable can have multiple values. I am trying to build a multiple line email with variables pulled from a csv file. This all works fine using a different inetsmtp function and $as_body[#] where # = number of lines required in email body and then declaring each line as $as_body[1] = and so on.

Doesnt seem to work with this method causes a com error

any ideas?

many thanks

Tony

Use your own $body_array and at sent time simply do:

$body = _ArrayToString($body_array, @crlf)

Jos, you are gent!!

thanks

being increasingly cheeky, is it possible to have images embedded with the email as well? I know I can add body array lines that refer to a web address for the png file, but i would prefer to send it with the email itself.

Thanks

Referencing an external image would be easy in an HTML body, but incorporating one will require to adapt the UDF.

Maybe this article can help you with that: http://support.jodohost.com/showthread.php?t=7692

Can someone do a example for hotmail (stmp.live.com) because I have tried many times over messing with the settings and cannot get it to work at all I get a error 2.

I am using port 25 and I have tried using ssl set to 0 and 1 and tried username & password and changed everything but it refuses to work.

I am using code in first post reason for not posting source is no need since I dont know what settings to post in my example since I tried so many

Found this info somewhere on the internet so that should be pretty straightforward assuming it works... so have you tried this?

To setup mail client to access Windows Live Hotmail account, use the following Hotmail POP3 and SMTP configuration settings:

Incoming Server (POP3 Server): pop3.live.com

Incoming Server POP Port: 995

Incoming Server POP SSL Encryption: Yes (On or Required)

Outgoing Server (SMTP Server): smtp.live.com

Outgoing Server SMTP Port: 25

Outgoing Server Authentication: Yes (On – Use POP username and password or Hotmail credentials)

Outgoing Server TLS or SSL Secure Encrypted Connection: Yes (On or Required)

Tip (by J): Outgoing Server of Hotmail also supports port 587, useful for people who encounters error for STMP due to ISP blockage or any other reason.

So my guess would be but can't test:

$SmtpServer = "smtp.live.com"       ; address for the smtp-server to use - REQUIRED
$Username = "hotmail account"           ; username for the account used from where the mail gets sent - REQUIRED
$Password = "hotmail password"          ; password for the account used from where the mail gets sent - REQUIRED
$IPPort = 25  ; or 587                  ; port used for sending the mail
$ssl = 1                        ; enables/disables secure socket layer sending - put to 1 if using httpS

The security for this can't be good.

I mean if i want it to send an email to me with attachmen. With a new created email with usr and pw in the code.

1. Anyone can sniff the traffic, and maybe take my usr and pw. And do what they want.

2. Anyone can decompile my program which is easy to do, and take my usr and pw.

So how can i secure this?

I know that it's possible to send emails with php without using any passwords or usernames.

Just using a email address and then send it.

Decompile I agree but sniffer ->nope.

You know what $SSL=1 will do?
