Woohoo I did it, my first fight with C# and reworked mailtask to use
System.Net.Mail, added compatibility so it can still accept the old
MailFormat and convert it as appropriate, but I made it obsolete and
added the "real" new attribute - MediaType.Text which can be plain,
html, xml or rtf. Pending is to rewrite the maillistener to use
System.Net.Mail too. 2 questions: 1. Is there a repository I can get the current trunk (svn?) or the zip file is the way to go? 2. Will the changes be accepted into nant?

Maybe depending on new .net2.0 System.Net.Mail namespace (which directly implements smtp protocol).I never used NAn't email task, but I use ccnet's (which is basically the same) and I never have a problem with installing OE to the server machine. But, it should be documented as dependancy in nant's documentation. Or atleast add troubleshoot section as ccnet has. You are not the only one, having problems, that's sure.

Aww now I'm even more confused. I though mail sending should be very v??y simple <task>. In short - whatever CDO is I don't have it - missing cdo*.* in system32 folder. In order to install it, I have to either install outlook or ms exchange according to MS site. I checked 3 pcs around - 2003 misses it, XP64 misses it too and XP32 has it. So it turns out by default nant lacks mail support on some (in my case most) systems. NET fault it seems. I will move forward to installing some of these to get the cdo support but it is not a great solution, can nant be made to use something more reliable for email tasks? Martin Aliger wrote:.net framework (atleast 1.1 for sure) don't send directlyto smtp portTCP/25. Instead, it uses CDO object, which is some COMsystem beast.And this thing has to be inicialized. You have to do itjust once. Youcould uninstall OE then. I dont know, whether Thunderbirduses/inits CDO.Perhaps there is some way how to accomplish this initialization by hand, without OE magic. Try to search for"System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail".That is what nant is using. btw: Confusing? Mailing systems are! Wish MS do somecleanup it this area.Perhaps WinFX... Martin Aliger |
