Sending email using Qt.

[kremuwa]

I used the structure from the post #9, taking into account post #11 (especially the second note). I am successfully connecting to the server and sending it those "lines" until it comes to send line number 7 (function PutSendLine(), case 7) - it's an actual message. After this line:

response = SendLineAndGrab(message+"\r\n.");

response = SendLineAndGrab(message+"\r\n.");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I'm receiving such a response from a server:

"550 5.5.2 Unknown command 'Date: Mon, 8 Mar 2010 15:54:26'

I have tried to remove the date (by commenting one of the first lines in smtp.cpp), but then I received similar response but this time it was aobut "User-Agent: Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0.6...".

Why is the server sending such responses? How to make it work?

in step 5
SendLineAndGrab("MAIL FROM: "+from);
someserver return:
501 Bad address syntax
so this line must chang to:
SendLineAndGrab("MAIL FROM:<"+from+">");

How can we add to this code an option to send attached files?

7-bit encode the attachments using something like Base64 and then attach them to the body of the email as a MIME attachment making sure that the message and each attachment has a different id so that the receiving email client knows how to seperate the parts again.

See POCO Libraries, its very helpfull

Can someone post some working code please? It'd be much appreciated and save the rest of us a lot of time and effort.
Sure, we could dig at this for a few days and get it to eventually work -- but why climb a mountain when someone's already built an escalator?

Cheers in advance

My mayor problem is that i receive an empty file if i do that, i must be doing something wrong
