WeOnlyDo! SmtpServer ActiveX control is a component
that can be easily integrated into your applications
to provide full non-relaying Smtp (Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol) server implementation. All you
need to do is to put it on VB form, call it's Start
method and it's immediately accepting connections by
your clients! It fully supports commands defined in
RFC2821.
Use your favorite mail client (such as Outlook
Express or Eudora) to send mail to other users on
your network . How? That's easy part: just put
SmtpServer control on your form, add some code around
and it's all setup to be used.
If you dislike adding additional code - it's fine by
Smtp. It will still work, and accept all emails but
delete them immediately after user disconnects. But,
if you define real filename on your disk, all the
emails will be stored to that file. Still, if you
want to make real Smtp server application, look no
more for native support for socket related material -
you just found it.
Smtp server will deal with clients and connections -
you must deal with messages. Once new user connects
to your Smtp server, you need to provide some way of
storing message posted by user to some file on disk,
or just read it from Body property and store manually
to, for example, database. This is really easy task.
If you keep all the emails in separate files, that's
just great for usage with WeOnlyDo! Smtp server. If
you prefer to keep it in one large file - we will not
argue about it. You can specify filename, make Smtp
server Append to that file, and everything will still
work just great. As a result, you will have one
mailbox for each user just like on UNIX computers.
Together with WeOnlyDo! Pop3 server, you can make
powerful fully maintained mail service application
that will share emails in your company, receive them
from internet and anything else you can imagine. You
can even create emails for your employees on the fly.
You can make Smtp store to same files from where Pop3
reads them
