Topic: Question about SendMail

Hello everyone, where's the SSL setting on this command? and BTW, where's TTL too?
Also, on the "sender" email, what can i do write my name instead of my email?
i tried

Myname <myemail@email.com>  but i ended up with this:

Myname <myemail@email.com> <myemail@email.com>

Re: Question about SendMail

Hello,


What kind of settings you need for SSL and TTL?


Please download the example how to send e-mail, you name you should write in TextBox "From"

Re: Question about SendMail

well..., some servers require ssl, other ssl and tunneling , and other require nothing. i have sendmail working but i am using a server that doesn't require ssl , can't configure anything other than that...
I took a look at your example, funny you use the settings on the form to configure the sendmail comand, i tought about using the same system.
Anyway, i can't use Gmail, hotmail, outlook, or even yahoo mail, they all use SSL and they all say: connection ended gracefully, but when i created a new account at a non ssl server like "portugalmail" , the server works perfercly, i suspect that this is due because i can't turn on ssl option with the "sendmail" command... sad
Another problem i am having is UTF=8, when i send an email with special characters, like: "Não" i receive on the other end "não" , but strange enough, if i attach the pdf file with my report (that also uses special chars) i receive the email perfectly.

Re: Question about SendMail

Nop, sorry but it just says: Connection closed gracefully
Could it be that Portuguese ISP servers are different than your Russian ISP Server and require tunneling or something like that?
Send mail is a command written by youself right? could you implement SSL and TTL options? Check those out if you can please smile

Re: Question about SendMail

I tested today, it works using Gmail. (I'm from Bulgaria).


SendMail function using component TidSMTP (with enabled SSL) from Indy components.



You can send me your project, I will test it.
