I have written a program followed the following instructions and have Many
instances of smtp32.exe in the task list. Any ideas???
Question/Problem: How can I tie an anti-virus program into IMail?
Warning, if not done correctly this will disable your mail server's delivery
process. Do not attempt this if you do not fully understand the contents of
this article and the IMail delivery process.
Answer/Solution: In the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Global
Registry key, create a string (REG_SZ) value named SendName (if it doesn't
exist) and set it to the full pathname of your program.
Your program will be passed a filename that begins with 'Q' For instance:
QAB234.SMD (it could have other extensions). This is the recipients file
(though other info is kept in there also). The 'Q' file is also used as the
lock file. Our file locking consists of renaming the 'Q' file to
_<same_text>.~<rest_of_extension>. Using the filename above the lock file
name would be: _AB234.~MD.
Your program can then scan/filter or otherwise process the data file. This
will be a file with name D<same_as_Q_file>.<same_extension_as_Q_file>.
Continuing the example the data file for QAB234.SMD would be: DAB234.SMD.
Once the data file is processed, your program should then unlock the Q file
(rename it back to the original) and call smtp32 with the original
parameters.
smtp32 qab234.smd
If your program is called with any other parameters it should immediately
call SMTP32 with them. Other parameters signal the start of queue processing
runs, either manual or automatic.
Thanks,
Rob.
