Chilkat2 PHP
SMTP over Multiple Hop SSH
Demonstrates how to send email (using TCP or TLS) tunneled through mulitple-hop SSH. The scheme looks like this:Application => ServerSSH1 => ServerSSH2 => SmtpServer
The ConnectThroughSsh and UseSsh methods are added in Chilkat version 9.5.0.55 to accomplish this task.
