Weird email sending rejection from on-rev using Sarah's library

[George C Brackett]

All is well: multiple emails in groups of 20 go through just fine  
without authentication.  Thanks again, Sarah!

As it happens, I tried sending from your stack WITHOUT authentication  
and, what do you know, it sent!  Changing Apple Mail preferences the  
same way gives the same results.  Now I don't know what's going to  
happen when I try to send a lot of emails, but we'll find out.  The  
program I'm working with sends results of student behavior to students  
and families in bursts of 20 at a time, with a pause between.  I'll  
let you know whether this works.

Sorry George, it won't work. My library uses port 25 for standard SMTP.
On-Rev uses port 465 (I think) and SSL to connect.
I never worked out the SSL connection details, but maybe I should take
a look and see if it is possible.

In the meantime, you could use an irev script to send emails using the
mail shell command.

Cheers,
Sarah
