tsNet Qs

[Dave Kilroy]

Thanks for your help with this Charles and others

Yesterday I got the same advice from HostM about using TLS  - "smtp://domain:port” and not "scheme://host:port/path: as it is in the dictionary

I’m so impressed with your external, it’s so fast and even fussy domains such as nhs.net email accounts accept emails sent by it without objection :)

I have a question to ask though, is it possible to include an attachment with the email? 

Dave

The error message I get back is (56) Failure when receiving data from peer/returned from server.  I’m just slogging through the tsNet Sample Sync Stack to speed things up since sending the email should be trivial compared to the data enclosed in the actual message. But, sometimes that’s how it goes:) Other than the Dictionary and this sample stack does anyone have a pointer to a simple example using this external with a hosted mail service?
