smtp autenthication
PostPosted: Mon May 25, 2009 10:12 am     Reply with quote

Hi, do anyone know how to set the smtp server autenthication, user password, in CCS TCP/IP stack?
Often its required as the same as for the POP3 server.
But where can I set the user and password?
Thanks/Tagge
I can answer it myself :( and it seems Im smoked.. Microchip seems to have it on their stack, but not CCS..
it says in the CCS smtp.c file that:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the war on spam many internet service providers are placing
// restrictions upon SMTP servers. Such restrictions may be authentication,
// sender-id, message-id and max message-per-minute rate. This engine
// deals with none of those restrictions. It's very likely in the future
// that it will be impossible for a PIC to have the resources to send e-mail
// using SMTP.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there any chance that CCS is going to update their stack? it doesnt seem to have happend any updates what so ever in a long time.
Its a pity, TCP/IP is a major part in microcontroller systems nowaday.
So it feels that one have to jump to the microchips compiler, but how much job will that give, migrating code to that? I do like my CCS in every other way. Or has anyone ported the newer stack to CCS himselv?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found a way to overcome the authentication, you can set up an SMTP relay server in any computer on the internal net.
There are several out there, for ex hmailserver and several other free ones, and of course some you can pay for.
