hb_sendmail

[jairpinho]

Hello, I've used the hb_sendmail () function in the past and it worked very well and simply, but now I'm trying to use it again with servers that do not use ssl and it does not work, with ssl gmail, yahoo and does not work, it includes all commented libs At the forum :
libs = hbtip
libs = hbssl
libs = libeay32
libs = ssleay32
however it compiles the program but does not send the email and does not show error, follow the attached project example.

Try to change the security settings on your gmail account.
My test gmail account works correctly.
BTW IMO passwords that contain the @ character do not work correctly with hb_sendmail.

Franco probably had a similar problem: viewtopic.php?p=51505#p51505

If anyone can find another way to get this to work, please post. Setting the security for less secure apps off worked for me, but I only wanted it to work for one less secure app (mine).

I do not know if we can do this, according to this information https://support.google.com/accounts/ans ... 0255?hl=en even MS Outlook is not a secure email client.

Hi franco,

When you send email through gmail smtp, then google treats the connection as non-secure no matter what application you use. I have done in many other languages including .Net, Xbase++ etc. You have to "allow non-secure" for that gmail credential you are using for sending the email.

I have found a way by creating a gmail a/c only for this purpose and allow non-secure apps. I use this gmail a/c to send email from all my mail apps.

Regards,

Anand

Hello everyone, what the Franco is asking and the same as I think, there is some simpler way to send email without ssl on port 587 for example, without using the DLLs in the folder as it was at the beginning of hb_sendmail, maybe via CDO or CURL with hmg if someone has an example with these two options CDO and CURL to have some more mail options not just being hb_sendmail

CDO with SSL support w/o external libs is here: viewtopic.php?p=51497#p51497
For testing, change the @ character to ! in the password of the smtp account.
CURL also needs external ssl libs, I think so.

EDK, worked perfectly on port 587 without ssl and no port 465 with sssl in gmail, yahoo and private domain techworks, also works on windows 32bits and 64 bits and does not need any external file and no lib, great function

jairpinho,
can you post the lines you changed or added ... can not get to work in gmail without turning security down.
what is curl and did you use it.
thanks Franco

Anand, is it safe to turn down security if only using in hmg programs. Is recieveing return emails from this account safe.
