    //  To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
    //  properties prior to making any calls that communicate with
    //  an SMTP server:
    //  The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or
    //  IP address:

    //  Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
    //  of the SOCKS proxy server:
    CkMailMan_putSocksVersion(mailman,5);
    //  Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
    //  SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

    //  Set the SMTP server.

    //  Set the SMTP login/password (if required)

    //  Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server and send.

    //  open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the

    }

    //  Some SMTP servers do not actually send the email until
    //  the connection is closed.  In these cases, it is necessary to
    //  call CloseSmtpConnection for the mail to be  sent.
    //  Most SMTP servers send the email immediately, and it is
    //  not required to close the connection.  We'll close it here
    //  for the example:
    success = CkMailMan_CloseSmtpConnection(mailman);
