hi dear,

Thank u fro ur reply.

Actually i want to collect all my mails from my mail box and save it in my system. And of course i also need to send emails from my system.
Is there any posibility for the above using the C / C++ or whether it can be done in the Qmail/Postfix


plz help me...

awaiting for ur reply...

Sorry, for this purpose qmail or postfix are not usefull.
For automatic e-mail retriving you could use the fetchmail.
For sending (also for retriving) you can write simple script in perl.
C or C++ is the hardest way to achieve your goal.

hello sir,

As u told me, i tried the SMTP service in PERL. Itz fine. In my home system(win XP) i wrote a perl program for the SMTP. i have attached the code below. Then i connected my system to the internet through dial up service. And then i executed the perl program from command prompt. During execution it showed me some errors which i am not aware of. Plz help me in clearing off the errors. I also attached the errors during execution.

CODE:
-----

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/plain", "\n\n";

use Net:MTP;


my $smt;
my $serv = "pec.edu";

$smt = Net:MTP->new($serv,Debug => 1);
die "No server" unless $smt;

$smt->mail('mohanaram007@sancharnet.in');
$smt->to('manojpec@yahoo.co.in');

# Start the mail
$smt->data();

# Send the header
# This address will appear in the message
$smt->datasend("To:manojpec@yahoo.co.in\n");

# So will this one
$smt->datasend("From:mohanaram007@sancharnet.in\n");
$smt->datasend("Subject: Test Message\n");
$smt->datasend("\n");

# Send the body.
$smt->datasend("Hello World!\n\n");

# Send the termination string
$smt->dataend();

# Close the connection
$smt->quit();

Your SMTP does not allow relaying from another hosts or your SMTP does not allow relaying for hosts without reverse DNS entry.
Possibly you need reverse DNS entry for your host.
Or try contact admin for enabling relaying for your host.
