Sending e-mails with authentication

Hi eXistentialists!
I have been looking at the extension mail module at trunk because in our GOPHER system (to be introduced in ISMB/ECCB) we need to send e-mails on specific events. As far as I have seen among the different module functions there is a deprecated one called send-email which could be used, but as I cannot give it the credentials in order to authenticate against our mail server it is not the one I need. So, my question is there any other more complete function to send e-mails? If it is not, I could try writing it.

The mail module in trunk has been updated significantly by Andrzej and
is now based on Java Mail. The old version was a custom SMTP client that I hand cranked. The new version should offer all the features of Java Mail, with authentication being one of those such features. Have a look at the one in trunk and see if that helps you. I have not tested authentication myself yet and have an outstanding recent enquiry on the mailing list to investigate for someone who cannot connect to their Google Account (SSL/TLS) from it.

FYI - I've often found that when having problems w/SSL connections this
was a huge help:
System.setProperty ("javax.net.debug", "ssl,handshake"); If you this property is set when the connection is attempted, the SSL layer dumps all kinds of useful diagnostic info (on System.err I think) -Mike Adam Retter wrote: The mail module in trunk has been updated significantly by Andrzej and is now based on Java Mail.

Hi Andrzej,
as far as I have seen, half of the work is already done (in essence, session handling), and, depending on the approach you choose to follow for authentication (explicit through Transport vs Authenticator callbacks) it can be easier or not. In any case, good job!

In any case, good job! Thanks.....first cut, I'm planning to just support the easier route for authentication through explicit Transport. If there is a need down the road, I might look at Authenticator callbacks, though that might be a bit tough to integrate cleanly into an XQuery function call. -- Andrzej Taramina Chaeron Corporation: Enterprise System Solutions http://www.chaeron.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you an open source citizen?
