SMTPClient

This documentation is for the SMTPClient class in the Segundo Equipo version of the NetServices library. To be used in conjunction with the EmailMessage class.

To test, import the test program into the compiler and then edit the #define items:

#define SERVER "server"
#define PORT 25
#define USER "username"
#define PASSWORD "password"
#define DOMAIN "mailnull.com"
#define FROM_ADDRESS "segundo.smtpclient@mailnull.com"
#define TO_ADDRESS "segundo.smtpclient@mailnull.com"

Authentication and encryption

The SMTPClient supports plain authentication. This means that the username and password are encoded (but not encrypted) into base 64 for sending to the server.

The SMTPClient does not support encryption of the authentication credentials or the message content. The class will therefore not be suitable for use with an SMTP server that enforces use of, for example, SSL or TLS.
