It works with Xbase++ with very little code and has amble sample for it. I use it for my software and am very happy with it. Regards, Anand | |

Since GMail requires SSL I had to also use STunnel for the encrypted connection. For some reason on June 23rd 2016 my email connections to GMail started to fail. At that time I was preparing to transition to XBase 2.0 which supported direct SSL connections unlike 1.9 which did not support SSL. I had created some test routines to test Xbase 2.0 email capabilities and these continued to work after the Marshallsoft version failed. I ended up hastening my transition to 2.0 and modified my email routines to use the native Xbase email classes. I found that they worked faster that the Marshallsoft version with STunnel. The only possible downside from your perspective is that it requires the Xbase Professional license however I am of the opinion that if we are creating full featured quality applications for our end users / clients then it's probably worth the investment.

Carlos a Beling | Re: MAPI questions on Thu, 23 Aug 2018 15:19:57 -0300 Hello Jonathan. Good afternoon. Many thanks. Now I am only needing to send simple e-mails and I have only the foundation subscription. Then I need only little things. Currently I am using the CDO library.
