Email from any application capable of calling the Windows API. Simple interface allows sending email, including MIME attachments. Knowledge of Winsock and TCP/IP not needed. Includes multiple C/C++ examples. The following example demonstrates the use of the library functions: +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | #include | | #include | | #include "see.h" | | | | void main(int argc, char *argv[]) | | {int Code; | | /* connect to SMTP server */ | | seeConnectTo( | | (LPSTR)"mail.yourserver.net", /* your SMTP server */ | | (LPSTR)"user@domain.com", /* your email address */ | | (LPSTR)NULL); /* Reply-To header */ | | /* send email */ | | seeSendEmail( | | (LPSTR)"see@marshallsoft.com", /* To list */ | | (LPSTR)NULL, /* CC list */ | | (LPSTR)NULL, /* BCC list */ | | (LPSTR)"SEE Test", /* Subject */ | | (LPSTR)"This is a test.", /* Message text */ | | (LPSTR)"SEE4C10.ZIP"); /* MIME attachment */ | | seeClose(); | | } | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ In the example program above, seeConnectTo is called to connect to your SMTP mail host. The SMTP server host name and your email address are required, while the "Reply-To" entry is optional. seeSendEmail is then called, passing the addressee lists. The primary addressee is given in the "To List". The CC ("Carbon Copy") lists additional receipients, as does the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) list. The subject contains the email subject line. The message text is next. If it starts with the '@' symbol, it is considered the name of the file containing the email message. Last, the filename of any binary attachment is specified. All fields in seeSendEmail are optional except the first. After returning from seeSendEmail, the seeClose function is called to close the connection to the SMTP server. Refer to the SEE4C Reference Manual for individual function details. SEE4C Users Manual Page 3 1.1 Email Client Compatibility The SMTP Email Engine library has been tested against multiple email clients, including Eudora (Lite & Pro), Microsoft Outlook, Pegasus, Calypso, PM Mail 98, Actif Mail, and Netscape. 1.2 User Support We want you to be successful in developing your applications using SEE4C!

SEE4C Users Manual Page 4 1.4 Installation (1) Before installation of SEE4C, your Windows C/C++ compiler should already be installed on your system and tested. In particular, include command line tools when installing your compiler. (2) Make a backup copy of your distribution disk. Put your original distribution disk in a safe place. (3) Exit Windows into DOS, or start a DOS window: (4) Create your SEE project directory, copy the SEE archive, then unzip the archive. For example: MKDIR SEE4C PKUNZIP SEE4C10.ZIP SEE4C (5) Run the INSTALL batch file, which will copy the correct DLL and LIB files for your compiler. For Win32 compilers, you may choose native mode DLLs for your compiler (Microsoft, Borland, or Watcom) or "universal" mode, which requires that your compiler support the "declspec" keyword. Microsoft, Borland 5.0 and Watcom 11.0 all support "declspec". The same DLL is used for all Win16 compilers. INSTALL MS (Microsoft) INSTALL BC (Borland) INSTALL WC (Watcom) INSTALL U (Universal) (6) Before compiling any example programs, edit them with your SMTP Host and email address. Look in the source (first few lines) for: #define SMTP_HOST_NAME "smtp_host_name" #define YOUR_EMAIL_ADDR "your_email_address" Replace smtp_host_name with the name of your SMTP Host name, and your_email_address with your email address. See section 3.4 for more details. 1.5 Consulting Services We offer consulting services at $75 per hour, billed to your credit card in 10 minute increments. A work authorization letter must be signed and mailed or FAXed to us before we can start. Questions dealing with the use of our library or our example programs are covered as "support", for which there is no charge. Any other questions are considered consulting. SEE4C Users Manual Page 5 2.0 Library Overview 2.1 Dynamic Link Libraries SEE4C includes both Win16 [SEE16] and a Win32 [SEE32] dynamic link library (DLL). A DLL is characterized by the fact that it need not be loaded until required by an application program and that only one copy of the DLL is necessary regardless of the number of application programs that use it. Contrast this to the traditional static library which is bound to each and every application that uses it at link time. Since SEE4C is a DLL, only one copy of the SEE4C code is loaded into memory regardless of the number of applications programs that use it. For example, more than one instance of the test program MAILER can be started. All copies of MAILER can run concurrently. 2.2 Compiler Compatibilty SEE4C has been tested with Microsoft Visual C/C++, Borland C/C++ (including C++ Builder), Turbo C/C++, and Watcom C/C++. Other Windows C/C++ compiler may work as well. 2.3 Compiling Programs The example programs can be compiled by using either the provided makefiles or creating a project file for the IDE. Separate makefiles are provided for Win16 and Win32. 16-bit makefile end with "16" while 32-bit makefiles end with "32". The various Win32 compiler manufacturers each use different compiler setting so that a DLL compiled with one compiler cannot always be called by an application compiled with a different compiler. One solution is to use of "declspec" keyword provided that your compiler supports it. See INSTALL.BAT. 2.4 Using a MAKEFILE Makefiles originated on UNIX systems. They are the standard way that C/C++ programs are constructed in command line environments. Windows programs can be constructed with makefiles running DOS using command line Windows compilers. Makefiles are provided for Microsoft, Borland, and WATCOM command line compilers. Makefiles have file extensions of "_M_" for Microsoft, "_B_" for Borland, and "_W_" for WATCOM. Thus, MAILER16._W_ is the Watcom Win16 makefile for MAILER and MAILER32._M_ is the Microsoft Win32 makefile. Turbo C/C++ for Windows and Borland C Builder do not support command line makefiles. See MAKEFILE.TXT for more information on makefiles. SEE4C Users Manual Page 6 2.5 Using an IDE All current windows compilers have an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for building application programs in the Windows environment. Since there is no standard format for IDE project files, file names must be entered into the IDE from the keyboard. Each example program has a project text file (e.g. MAILER.PRJ) which contains the list of filenames that must be entered into the IDE. We do not distribute IDE files in our package because (1) they are very large, (2) they are not always upwardly compatible with previous versions of a particular IDE, (3) there is no standard project file format between compiler manufactures, and (4) they often must be modified to provide the correct path names. However, creating a project file within the IDE is very easy. Each application has a project file . Each project file contains the filenames that must be entered into the IDE. For each IDE, you will have to enter these filenames into the IDE. This is usually done with the INS key except for the Microsoft Developer, which uses menu commands. Be careful to enter all filenames as listed in the ".PRJ" file. All of the example application programs have been built using IDEs from Microsoft, Borland, and Watcom. However, there are differences between IDE versions from the same compiler manufacturer. All of the IDEs use the concept of a file hierarchy. For example, the Finger file hierarchy in the IDE (for 32-bit) should look like: MAILER.EXE +++ MAILER.C +++ SEE32.LIB Replace SEE32.LIB above with SEE16.LIB for 16-bit applications. The order of the files is not significant. 2.5.1 Microsoft IDE Choose "Project", then "New". Select Win16 [Win32] as the target. A dialog box will then pop up into which the project file names are entered. SEE4C Users Manual Page 7 2.5.2 Microsoft Developer Choose "File", then "New", then "Project Workspace". Select "Application" for "Type:" and your project name for "Name:". Choose Win16 or Win32 for platform. Then select "Create". Select "Insert", then "Files into Project". Add all filenames as listed in the ".PRJ" file corresponding to the project you are building. Lastly, select "Rebuild All". 2.5.3 Borland IDE Turn off LINKER case sensitivities: Choose "Options", "Projects", "Linker", "General". Turn off the "case sensitive link" and "case sensitive exports and imports" boxes. Next, choose "Project", then "New Project". Use the INS (Insert) key to pop up a dialog box into which the project file names are entered. Select "GUI" for the "Target Model:" Only "Runtime" and "Dynamic" should be checked for "Standard Libraries:" NOTE1: If, after linking in the IDE, you get unresolved external references to the communications library functions in which each function name is all upper case, then you have NOT turned off case sensitivity as described above. NOTE2: If you get errors compiling the windows header file "WINDOWS.H", turn on "Borland Extensions" in "Options", "Project", "Compiler", "Source". 2.5.4 Turbo C IDE Follow the same directions as above, except that the "Target Model:" can be any listed. 2.5.5 Borland C++ Builder Choose "File" / "Open Project" on the menu bar. Load BCB_PRJ.MAK. Then, choose "Build All" from "Project" to create the executable. 2.5.6 Watcom IDE Choose "File", then "New Project". Enter the project name and then choose Win16 [Win32] as the target. Use the INS (Insert) key to pop up a dialog box into which the project file names are entered. Select "Options" from the main window, then "C Compiler Switches", then "10". Memory Models and Processor Switches". Check "80386 Stack based calling [-3s]", then check "32-bit Flat model [-mf]". SEE4C Users Manual Page 8 2.6 Compiling Example Programs There are makefiles provided for each of the example programs. For example, to compile QUICK: For Microsoft C, type: NMAKE -f QUICK16._M_ NMAKE -f QUICK32._M_ For Borland C, type: MAKE -f QUICK16._B_ MAKE -f QUICK32._B_ For Watcom C, type: WMAKE -f QUICK16._W_ WMAKE -f QUICK32._W_ Several example programs are coded for Win32 Console Mode, and therefore can NOT be compiled under Win16. The QM_PRJ example program requires Borland C++ Builder. The MFC_PGM example program requires Microsoft Foundations Classes (MFC). SEE4C Users Manual Page 9 3.0 Email Basics 3.1 Your Email Account Your email account is hosted on a computer which has a permament connection to the Internet. Email is sent to you over the Internet using the SMTP (Simple Mail Transport Protocol) and is stored on disk until you retrieve it using the POP (Post Office Protocol) or IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) protocol. The SMTP Email Engine (SEE) is used to send email using the SMTP protocol. 3.2 Email Address Format Email addresses are always specified as "xxx" where (1) xxx is the optional "real name". (2) yyy@zzz is the official email address, where yyy is your account name, and zzz is where your email account is hosted. (3) The brackets are required. For example, my email address can be specified by any of the following: (1) (2) Mike (3) Mike Marshall Multiple email addresses can be stringed together separated by commas, as in: ",," See the example programs for many example of use. 3.3 MIME Extensions Internet mail can only transport 7-bit ASCII characters. Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) are used to allow the attachment of binary data to an email message. Two MIME types supported by the SMTP Email Engine library are "quoted-printable" and "base64" attachments. SEE4C Users Manual Page 10 3.3.1 Quoted-Printable Encoding Quoted-Printable encoding is primarily used to embed binary values into a email message, typically for use with foreign alphabets. To enable Quoted-Printable encoding, call seeIntegerParam(SEE_QUOTED_PRINTABLE, 1); before calling seeSendEmail. To disable Quoted-Printable encoding, call seeIntegerParam(SEE_QUOTED_PRINTABLE, 0); The default is Quoted-Printable encoding off. 3.3.2 Binary Attachments Binary attachments are encoded using MIME base-64. Most all email clients (such as made by Eudora, Netscape, and Microsoft) can decode MIME base-64 attachments. To attach a file to your email, you specify the filename as the last argument of the seeSendEmail function. Refer to the reference manual for more details. 3.4 Your SMTP Host Name In order to send email, you must know the name (IP address) of your SMTP server. All email client programs (Eudora, etc.) must have this name in order to send email. Typically, your SMTP server name will be "mail.XXX.YYY" where XXX.YYY is the name of the computer which hosts your email account. If you aren't sure of your SMTP Host name, look in the setup of your email client program or ask your system administrator. Before compiling any example programs, edit them with your SMTP Host and your email address (for replies). Look in the source code (first few lines) for: #define SMTP_HOST_NAME "smtp_host_name" #define YOUR_EMAIL_ADDR "your_email_address" Replace smtp_host_name with the name of your SMTP Host name, and your_email_address with your email address. For example, since our ISP is HIWAAY.NET, I would use: #define SMTP_HOST_NAME "mail.hiwaay.net" #define YOUR_EMAIL_ADDR "Mike Marshall " SEE4C Users Manual Page 11 4.0 Versions of SEE The SMTP Email Engine (SEE) library is available in three versions. All three versions have identical functionality. 4.1 Shareware Version The shareware version can be differentiated from the other two versions by: (1) The shareware reminder screen is displayed at startup. (2) The "X-Registered-To: " header in all outgoing email is branded with "X-Registered-To: SHAREWARE VERSION [http://www.marshallsoft.com]" (3) All email if followed by the following two lines: "______________________________________________________________" "MarshallSoft SMTP Engine. Programmers see www.marshallsoft.com" The Shareware version may not be used for commercial purposes. 4.2 Student Version The student version can be differentiated from the other two versions by: (1) There is no shareware remainder screen. (2) The "X-Registered-To: " header in all outgoing email is branded with "X-Registered-To: STUDENT VERSION [http://www.marshallsoft.com]" (3) There are no lines added to the end of the email as in the shareware version. The Student version may not be used for commercial purposes. 4.3 Professional Version The professional version can be differentiated from the other two versions by: (1) There is no shareware remainder screen. (2) The "X-Registered-To: " header in all outgoing email is branded with your company name. (3) There are no lines added to the end of the email as in the shareware version. The professional version may be distributed with your application as per the the software license. SEE4C Users Manual Page 12 5.0 Using SEE with Other Languages The SMTP Email Engine DLLs can be used with any application written in ANY language capable of calling the Windows (3.1, 95/98, NT) API. SEE16.DLL is required for all Win16 (Windows 3.1) applications, and SEE32.DLL is required for all Win32 (Windows 95/98/NT) applications. Declaration files have been defined by the following languages: C/C++ : SEE.H Visual Basic : SEE16.BAS & SEE32.BAS EXCEL & ACCESS : SEE16.BAS & SEE32.BAS Borland Delphi : SEE16.PAS & SEE32.PAS Fujitsu COBOL : SEE32.CBI Visual FoxPro : SEE32.FOX Additional declaration files will be added. Give us a call if you need a declaration not listed above. If you have interfaced SEE to an unusual language, email us the declaration file! 6.0 Problems Before attempting to run any of the example programs, you should already be able to connect to the Internet and run your email client program, such as Eudora or Pegasus Mail. If you cannot get your application to run properly, first compile and run the example programs. If you call us to report a possible bug in the library, the first thing we will ask is if the example programs run correctly. Be sure to test the code returned from SEE functions. Then, call seeErrorText to get the text associated with the error code. For example: Code = seeConnectTo("mail.isp.net","",NULL); if(Code<0) {static char Buffer[64]; seeErrorText(Code,Buffer,64); printf("Error %d: %s\n", Code, Buffer); } If you encounter a problem that you cannot resolve, give us a call. SEE4C Users Manual Page 13 7.0 Example Programs Before compiling any example programs, edit them with your SMTP server name and your email address. Look in the source (first few lines) for: #define SMTP_HOST_NAME "smtp_host_name" #define YOUR_EMAIL_ADDR "your_email_address" Replace smtp_host_name with the name of your SMTP server, and your_email_address with your email address. We also have example programs written in other languages, including Visual Basic, Delphi, ACCESS, EXCEL, FoxPro, and Fujitsu Cobol. 7.1 MAILER MAILER is a Win32 console mode program that emails a message. This is the first example program to edit, compile, and run. 7.2 MULTI MULTI is a Win32 console mode program that emails multiple messages. Several additional features are also demonstrated. 7.3 DRIVER DRIVER is a Win32 console application that shows the use of the seeDriver function. This is useful when sending very large messages or attachments in that it allows the calling program to monitor the progress of the session. 7.4 QUICK QUICK is a Win16/Win32 GUI application that emails a message entered into a dialog box. 7.5 QM "Quick Message" (QM_PRJ & QM_PGM) is a Borland C++ Builder (Win32 GUI) program that emails a message from the GUI. Borland C++ Builder is required to compile this program. 7.6 MFC_PGM MFC_PGM is a Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) example program. Win16 (MFCPGM16.MAK) and Win32 (MFCPGM32.MAK) makefiles are provided.
