It's not that complicated, although curl is a little under-developed and low level in relation to mail at the moment (I'm in the process of straightening some of it's shortcomings out, such as the dot-stuffing). > Use vMime in windows seems a little less complicated > (http://omgwtfbbq.nl/it-stuff/howto-compiling-libvmime-on-mingwmsys/). Not for me it wasn't. There didn't seem to be any indication that (for instance) libiconv is supported on MSWin. Pre-compiled solutions aren't much good if they are using a different compiler (I happened to be using MingW). I didn't want to spend days on it, and as I mentioned before it seems to be aimed at the gnu-centric eco system, unlike Wt. In retrospect it may have been a better choice to set up a Cygwin compiler/environment, but I'm not keen of back tracking at this point. > Anyway, Wt on windows or Linux, does not have a system to send emails. It would certainly be nice if there was an easy way to do email, since it is often a central part of a website user service, although the choices of what protocols and facilities to implement could lead to some discussion. If you assume that Wt is running on the same server as the mailserver, then you may want to use a direct interface to the MTA (sendmail, qmail, exim, postfix etc.). If not, then some other combination may be more suitable (SMTP, POP3, IMAP). I've decided to go for the latter, since I think I only need low volume, and it decouples the execution environments. > I think vMime is very efficient and possible to use Windows, I would > like to see another simple and efficient solution for both. I don't see it as currently usable for MSWin, without heroic effort.
