My applications make liberal use of @sendmail, and the increasingly prevalent SSL requirement by major web hosting providers has proven to be a real irritant, forcing me to comment out my @sendmail's while I cast about for a solution (reading up on tunneling solution gave me a headache, and I couldn't get it to work).
Today I found a solution that doesn't involve having to move my webhosting, or buy a domain and hosting plan with an SSL-free email server. The solution I ran across is
www.smtp2go.com. For $2/month, I can send 50 emails a day through this server (for $5/month you get 300 emails/day capacity). Here is what I did on the @sendmail line to get it to work ....
vEmail = @sendmail("smtp2go.com","WebExport","YourSMTP2GOaccountHereAsThe'From'Address","
TheToRecipient@Address.com","","","Here is a WebExport of " + vWeb,"","",vWeb)
Very simple solution.
