use chilkat();

#  The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
$mailman = new chilkat::CkMailMan();

#  Any string argument automatically begins the 30-day trial.
$success = $mailman->UnlockComponent("30-day trial");
if ($success != 1) {
    print "Component unlock failed" . "\n";
    exit;
}

#  Set the SMTP server.
$mailman->put_SmtpHost("smtp.chilkatsoft.com");

#  Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
$mailman->put_SmtpUsername("myLogin");
$mailman->put_SmtpPassword("myPassword");

#  Create a new email object
$email = new chilkat::CkEmail();

#  Load a .eml file into the email object.
$success = $email->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.
$success = $mailman->SendEmail($email);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $mailman->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

#  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 = $mailman->CloseSmtpConnection();
if ($success != 1) {
    print "Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly." . "\n";
}

print "Mail Sent!" . "\n";
