Use Winsock Control to send email

[Conax]

Hi,

Does anybody know how to use the Microsoft Winsock Control for sending
Email? I'd like to learn to use the Winsock control to send/receive
different kinds of data (SMTP send email, POP receive email, HTTP....etc.)

Thank you.
Conax

If you want to 'roll your own', you can use our free
SocketWrench package (which includes a Windows Sockets
and RAS dialer control) to create a simple SMTP client.
We include a tutorial that should get you started if
you don't have much experience with TCP/IP programming.
You should also read RFC821 for the commands that you
need to send, and for the response codes sent back from
the server that you'll need to handle. We also have a
commercial package which includes components for SMTP,
POP3 and MIME which would make things considerably
easier to deal with. You can download either
package from our website at http://www.catalyst.com.
