A library that provided an interface for sending e-mail would be called an e-mail client. That should help searching.

sending mail is very easy using c++. use pop or pop3 protocol. Just a 50 line code will do it. google C++ and pop.

you just have to open a socket and follow the protocol. the protocol can be found here:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1939.txt

sample protocol:

S: <wait for connection on TCP port 110>
C: <open connection>
S: +OK POP3 server ready <[e-mail]>
C: APOP mrose c4c9334bac560ecc979e58001b3e22fb
S: +OK mrose's maildrop has 2 messages (320 octets)
C: STAT
S: +OK 2 320
C: LIST
S: +OK 2 messages (320 octets)
S: 1 120
S: 2 200
S: .
C: RETR 1
S: +OK 120 octets
S: <the POP3 server sends message 1>
S: .
C: DELE 1
S: +OK message 1 deleted
C: RETR 2
S: +OK 200 octets
S: <the POP3 server sends message 2>
C: QUIT
S: +OK dewey POP3 server signing off (maildrop empty)
C: <close connection>
S: <wait for next connection>

hha..
great writeonsharma!!!
thanx...

POP3 is not for sending. You want to look into "SMTP" (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) instead.

Ciao, Imi.
Edit: except you mean "sending from my mailbox over there into my computer just here". Then it's POP3. :-D

that does not work, too... u need have an mx record for your mail server, or noone of those big email-providers(like gmx, web, yahoo, etc) will not accept your requests...

i already encountered this problem...

[qabil]

so? what the solution bro?

[writetonsharma]

i currently don't have the code though but if you just want to send mails, pop will do that for you.

i have send mails to yahoo using pop. yes gmail doesnt accept that mail because it understands it to be junk or bulk mails and rejects. but i think when you have some basic code, removing that problem will not be a big deal.

just give it a try.
