SendSmtpMail

[zaksoft]

Version 3.03

It is possible to specify as parameter 3 ( FROM - ie Sender ) not only the eMail address but also the name ( ie something like "Name Surname" <name.surname@isv.com> ) ?

TIA

Hello,

Yes you can use "Name Surname <name.surname@isv.com>" in the From field.

It doesnt work, even removing "" from name as you suggest I alway get return code 14.. (even if I only put <name.surname@isv.com> , only a plain email address seem to work)

P.S. can you give more information also of retCode meanings (I suppose 13=network error - happens when firewall i blocking - 14 = malformed eMail)

P.S.2 can we use HTML data for szMessage ?

I'm using C++ not maged code in VS2008 SP1 and Amyuni suite 3.03

Hello

Specifying an friendly name is a feature that is not implemented in the SendSmtpMail function. This is a feature that is scheduled for inclusion in future versions of the product. Unfortunately, it is NOT implemented in the current 3.03 product.

The SendSmtpMail function returns 0 if successful or an SMTP specific error code if an error occurs when sending the email. Below is a list of some of the most common SMTP return codes.

ERR_SUCCESS 0
ERR_INITIALIZE_INITIALIZED 10
ERR_INITIALIZE_WINSOCKVERSION 11
ERR_SHUTDOWN 12
ERR_CONNECTING 13
ERR_HANDSHAKING 14
ERR_RECIPIENT 15
ERR_DATA 16
ERR_QUIT 17
ERR_NOTFOUND 18
ERR_INSUFFICIENTRESOURCES 20

The SendSmtpMail function can only send the message as plain text. It cannot send the data as HTML.

Hope that helps?

David
