Support for SMTP_Auth

[Richard la Croix]

Hi Scott,

I am looking for the possibility to do SMTP_Auth with the SMTPR4 tool.

I looked in the source of my current installation but don't find any option like this.
According to the comment in my version it is from August 2006.

Is there a newer version that supports SMTP login? I don't find any reference to the SMTP tool on your website any more.

If not, I assume I would need to extend SMTP_connect and SMTP_hshake to provide for this. Any feedback or advise from your side regarding this?

Best regards
Richard

Hi Scott,

I am also looking for the same answer.

We have been using SMTPR4 for a very long time and now we need to authenticate with Office365 and I am trying to find either an example of the format of the SMTP request that authenticates or how to modify SMTPR4 to do so.

Thanks

Don

The first post is correct, it's not currently implemented. You could add it (I suspect you'd also want to add SSL support) and contribute it back to the project.

Hello Scott,

thanks for your reply. That's what I expected.

I actually started implementing but then the company decided to change providers. The new provider also offers a rest api for mailing and that was a snap to implement with httpapi
It has some other advantages over smtp as well.

Thanks for your great work and best regards!
