Solved SMTP Relay Software

[JDobbsy1987]

Hi,

Does anyone know of some software that will allow command line SMTP relay through gmail or something like that?

I use postie.exe at work through our exchange system however i cant get it to work at home through gmail?

Hi All,

I can't believe how long i was looking for a solution to my question before posting here and then almost instantly after i found something LOL.

Here is what i have used along with command.

I have used smtpmail from - Send E-Mail from the Command Line or Batch File

and even better... they even give a gmail smtp command example and it worked perfectly

SMTPMAIL.EXE server=smtp.gmail.com [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] password=mysecret ssl license=20110904ff4bb6de06366ba6cd414d69168b6bda subject="Hello via GMail!" body="This email was sent using the GMail SMTP server :-)"

Obviously i just changed the info in the command line for my gmail account

Didn't take me long to realize that the above method only works for gmail with the pro version which costs money (you get a 30 day trial)

however a little more search and found this vbscript that may be better if anyone is interested?

Const schema   = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/"
Const cdoBasic = 1
Const cdoSendUsingPort = 2
Dim oMsg, oConf

' E-mail properties
Set oMsg      = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
oMsg.From     = "[email protected]"  ' or "Sender Name <[email protected]>"
oMsg.To       = "[email protected]"    ' or "Recipient Name <[email protected]>"
oMsg.Subject  = "Subject"
oMsg.TextBody = "Text body"

' GMail SMTP server configuration and authentication info
Set oConf = oMsg.Configuration
oConf.Fields(schema & "smtpserver")       = "smtp.gmail.com"
oConf.Fields(schema & "smtpserverport")   = 465
oConf.Fields(schema & "sendusing")        = cdoSendUsingPort
oConf.Fields(schema & "smtpauthenticate") = cdoBasic
oConf.Fields(schema & "smtpusessl")       = True
oConf.Fields(schema & "sendusername")     = "[email protected]"
oConf.Fields(schema & "sendpassword")     = "sender_password"
oConf.Fields.Update

oMsg.Send
