Send/Recive e-mails

[xavier_bravo]

I need to send and receive e-mail ATTACHMENTS from my Progress application.

I'm looking for an easy way to CONTROL the sending & reciving of the e-mails with my Progress Code.

I don't want any external interface or standard program that send/receive e-mail attachments. I would like to do it
automaticaly within Progress.

Thanks.

I have some Progress code sending MIME-attachments via sendmail. But since you didn't want to use any external program the only way I can think of is writing a SMTP client using sockets to connect to a mailserver and send the message. SMTP should be fairly simple and there are some good KB entrys about sockets (or look in the digital version of the external profram interface guide).

Hope this might help you, contact me if you want to take a look at the MIME-attachment code.
