[AccessD] CDOSYS

Hi Gustav,


1. Within Outlook I can Set up a Pop3 Email Account to retrieve email from a
web based Server. I can reply to these emails using Outlook and SMTP. I can
also send these replies using CDOSYS (based on Marty's program) thus
AVOIDING using Outlook and it's absurd security (which I bypass using
ClickYes) but this is s.l.o.w. for large email groupings.

2. Within Outlook I can Set up an IMAP Email Account to retrieve email from
a web based Server (web mail).  I can reply to these emails from within
Outlook which will also synchronize the emails with those sitting on the web
server (web mail).  What I CANNOT DO and what I would like to do is to send
IMAP based emails without using Outlook and the reason is that there is
nowhere within Marty's program to tell it to use SSL (which is a requirement
of the server hosting the web mail) or to tell it which ports to use.

I hope the above clarifies my needs.  I apologize to all for any confusion
and regret not having explained it properly in the first place.  It would
appear that there is no easy/cheap option here.

Thanks

Regards
Max

Hi Max

That did cause if not problems then confusion.

And it still does. IMAP is for retrieving mail from a mail server, SMTP is
for sending mail. Further, you can use an installed Outlook to send mail
without bothering about SMTP and other mail configuration, but if you wish
to bypass or ignore Outlook you need to send with SMTP via your
corporate/hosted/in-house mail server or via your ISP's mail server, or
directly to the receiver's mail server.

Marty, I am so sorry.  I meant to say SMTP not Pop3.  I hope this hasn't
caused you (and others) any problems.
It sends email via SMTP and I would like to send it via IMAP so that it
appears to come as if from the webmailer without having to go through
Outlook (I can do it via Outlook with no problem) but not from within your
program.

Max
