Send Email without Authentication (no Login)
Demonstrates how to send email using an SMTP server that does not require authentication.An SMTP server that needs no authentication should be protected by a firewall, to prevent outsiders from using it as a SPAM server. To send email without logging in, simply set the mailman's SmtpAuthMethod property = "NONE".

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
// The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
Chilkat.MailMan mailman = new Chilkat.MailMan();
// Set the SMTP server. Perhaps it is the local machine.
mailman.SmtpHost = "localhost";
// Or perhaps it's a particular computer on the local network:
mailman.SmtpHost = "192.168.1.123";
// Or provide a local domain that resolves to an IP address on the local network:
mailman.SmtpHost = "mymailsesrver.com";
// Set the SmtpAuthMethod property = "NONE"
mailman.SmtpAuthMethod = "NONE";
// Set the SMTP login/password (this may be omitted given no authentication will take place)
// mailman.SmtpUsername = "myUsername";
// mailman.SmtpPassword = "myPassword";
// Create a new email object
Chilkat.Email email = new Chilkat.Email();
email.Subject = "This is a test";
email.Body = "This is a test";
email.From = "Chilkat Support <support@chilkatsoft.com>";
success = email.AddTo("Chilkat Admin","admin@chilkatsoft.com");
// To add more recipients, call AddTo, AddCC, or AddBcc once per recipient.
// 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 != true) {
Debug.WriteLine(mailman.LastErrorText);
return;
}
// 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 != true) {
Debug.WriteLine("Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.");
