Hi all

Recently i started sockets programming with winsock2.h and i decided to build an smpt lib since there is no one by default, and here it is, of course that is still under construction, and later i will make also an lib to pop3 access.

There is an example of a program that sends a mail using smtp protocol.

#include <winsock2.h>

#include <stdio.h>


#include "smtp.h"


int main()

{

	WSADATA WSAData;

	DWORD WSAResult;


	SMTP_MAIL   SMTPMail;

	SMTP_CLIENT SMTPClient;


	WSAResult = WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2,2), &WSAData);


	if(WSAResult)

	{

		printf("Error loading winsock DLL.\n");

		exit(0);

	}

	else

		printf("%s load sucessfully.\n", WSAData.szDescription);


	SMTPMail.from = "anyemail@example.com";

	SMTPMail.to = "target@mail.com";      // Put your email here

	SMTPMail.header = "SMTP mail";

	SMTPMail.message = "Here i am!!!";


	SMTPClient.port = 25;

	SMTPClient.host = gethostbyname("mail.novis.pt");


	if(SendSmtpMail(&SMTPClient, &SMTPMail) == SEND_OK)

		printf("Mail sended successfully!!\n");

	else

		printf("Error at sending email...\n");


	WSACleanup();


	system("pause");

	return 0;

}

simple like .NET isn't it?

And also to use winsock2.h for those who dont know, you must add: ws2_32.lib to the linker.
