Send an SMTP NOOP Command

See more SMTP Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat MailMan.SmtpNoop method, which sends an SMTP NOOP command to the server. NOOP does nothing except elicit a positive response, which is useful for keeping a connection alive or verifying it is still responsive. This example opens an SMTP connection, sends a NOOP, and closes.
