Load EML and Send

Download Chilkat Email ActiveX

Demonstrates how to load an email from a .eml file and send.

LOCAL loMailman
LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loEmail

*  The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
loMailman = CreateObject('Chilkat.MailMan2')

*  Any string argument automatically begins the 30-day trial.

lnSuccess = loMailman.UnlockComponent("30-day trial")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    =MESSAGEBOX("Component unlock failed")
    QUIT
ENDIF

*  Set the SMTP server.
loMailman.SmtpHost = "smtp.chilkatsoft.com"

*  Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
loMailman.SmtpUsername = "myLogin"
loMailman.SmtpPassword = "myPassword"

*  Create a new email object
loEmail = CreateObject('Chilkat.Email2')

*  Load a .eml file into the email object.
lnSuccess = loEmail.LoadEml("c:/temp/myEmail.eml")

*  Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server and send.
*  The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
*  open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the
*  same connection.
lnSuccess = loMailman.SendEmail(loEmail)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    =MESSAGEBOX(loMailman.LastErrorText)
    QUIT
ENDIF

*  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:
lnSuccess = loMailman.CloseSmtpConnection()
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    =MESSAGEBOX("Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.")
ENDIF

=MESSAGEBOX("Mail Sent!")
