e-mail problems again

[John J. Hughes II]

Ok I need to send e-mail from my application. I had some code working but
now several of the e-mail system are requesting security that I don't
support. Mostly I'm getting sick of fighting this battle.

1) Can anyone recommend a add-on for sending e-mail with security... Seem
"STARTTLS" is my latest problem. I found easy mail but 750 is a little
steep.

2) Point me in the direction of a program that handles "STARTTLS", the
couple I reviewed on code project don't seem to.

3) Anyone know if VS.NET 2005 handles e-mail without installing IIS?

Regards,
John

John,

.NET 2.0 has the System.Net.Mail namespace (which is new), which can
send email (without needing a local SMTP server). I don't know if supports
STARTTLS though.

If it doesn't you can check out the Indy project
(http://www.indyproject.org), which has much more functionality (and I would
be surprized if it didn't support it).

Hope this helps.
