Authenticated SMTP

[Jack Fox]

Suddenly I need to change an email sending program from using SMTP to
Authenticated SMTP (ASMTP), and my old code

SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "my.smtpauth.server";
SmtpMail.Send(Message);

no longer works.

Somehow I need to pass my password to the ASMTP server, but the SmtpMail
object doesn't appear to support this. Is there a work-around?

I found the solution. Add these fields to your Message object before
sending:

Message
..Fields["http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate"] =
1;
Message
..Fields["http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername"] =
"myusername";
Message
..Fields["http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword"] =
"mypass";
