FREE : SMTP Action Plugin

[boku]

Hi Reteset,

It was never a question about the plugin mate ... I just wanted to know if the plugin encrypted user names and passwords with Base64 as required by some Microsoft exchange servers.

to explain your question better i show a relevant part of send function that this plugin uses

this plugin is just a activex wrapper ,so it does nothing itself
it just redirects your informations to CDO ActiveX component of Windows operating system that is build-in since windows 2000 (maybe some older)

this is the relevant part of the source
it does not connect to inernet itself through sockets
and it does not send or receive SMTP commands like : EHLO , AUTH LOGIN

PHP Code:

CoInitialize(NULL);

HRESULT hr = NULL;
IMessage *pMsg = NULL;
IConfiguration *pConfig = NULL;
Fields *pFields = NULL;
Field *pField = NULL;

     hr = CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(Message)
                      ,NULL,CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,__uuidof(IMessage)
                      ,reinterpret_cast<void**>(&pMsg));
if (SUCCEEDED(hr)){

     hr = CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(Configuration)
                           ,NULL,CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,__uuidof(IConfiguration)
                           ,reinterpret_cast<void**>(&pConfig));
if (SUCCEEDED(hr)){

pConfig->get_Fields(&pFields);


if (pFields){

COleVariant sFname((LPCTSTR)"http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing");
pFields->get_Item(sFname.Detach(),&pField);
VARIANT varAs;
varAs.vt=VT_I4;
varAs.intVal=2;
pField->put_Value(varAs);

COleVariant sFname4((LPCTSTR)"http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate");
pFields->get_Item(sFname4.Detach(),&pField);
VARIANT varServerAuth;
varServerAuth.vt=VT_I4;
varServerAuth.intVal=Authenticated;
pField->put_Value(varServerAuth);


if (Authenticated) {

COleVariant sFname5((LPCTSTR)"http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername");
pFields->get_Item(sFname5.Detach(),&pField);
COleVariant sUserName(szUserName);
pField->put_Value(sUserName.Detach());



COleVariant sFname6((LPCTSTR)"http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword");
pFields->get_Item(sFname6.Detach(),&pField);
COleVariant sPassword(szPassWord);
pField->put_Value(sPassword.Detach());

}

COleVariant sFname7((LPCTSTR)"http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl");
pFields->get_Item(sFname7.Detach(),&pField);
VARIANT varServerSsl;
varServerSsl.vt=VT_I4;
varServerSsl.intVal=UseSSL;
pField->put_Value(varServerSsl);

pFields->Update();

}


hr = pMsg->put_Configuration(pConfig);

if (SUCCEEDED(hr)){

hr = pMsg->Send();

}
}
}
if (pFields){
      pFields->Release();
        }
if (pField){
      pField->Release();
        }

    if (pMsg)
    {
        pMsg->Release();
    }
    if (pConfig)
    {
        pConfig->Release();
    }

    CoUninitialize();

It's just really wierd, I have turned all my security off to test this!

through telnet, I get the correct screen code 220 ... through my app I get FAILED_TO_CONNECT

It works with other servers, gmail, my isp but not the work smtp server...unless I auth myself and I manually encode my username and password with base64 encoding in telnet ... manually encoded the username and password in my app ... still FAILED_TO_CONNECT

plz. help

i am not sure arabic is unicode or not
if it is unicode then AMS does not support unicode already

if it is not then , it is necessary to add something to this plugin to support for such languages

this plugin is not ideal for all purposses , becuase it uses simplest functionality of
CDO , and i am not going to update this plugin unless a bug found

because there are tons of methods and properties of CDO API
and it may take a long time to wrap all API to a plugin

i am working on a method to modify LuaCom plugin to automate
all CDO API in to a plugin , like Luacom does it for others

so far all of my attempts failed to send a SMTP mail with recent LuaCom plugin , i do not know why

if i can modify LuaCom plugin and automate CDO properties and methods
internally , then you can use Encoding property and all of others yourself

i am going to release it as a separated plugin CDO if it will work
