| 46 | ><i> I've implemented this before in two IRC-based projects I've done. | |
| 47 | </I>><i> | |
| 48 | </I>><i> Your best bet is to use popen(3) to open sendmail, and then just | |
| 49 | </I>><i> write the email to the given pipe. This has it's advantages because: | |
| 50 | </I>><i> | |
| 51 | </I>><i> a) You don't have to read() from the pipe. | |
| 52 | </I>><i> b) You don't have to try to send email again if the first one | |
| 53 | </I>><i> bounces. | |
| 54 | </I>><i> c) Generally most popular MTA's (Qmail is a definite one) include | |
| 55 | </I>><i> a drop-in sendmail replacement, OR they just leave sendmail alone. | |
| 56 | </I>><i> Sendmail is both a client and server, and there is no reason it can't be | |
| 57 | </I>><i> left alone just to be used to pipe mail into. | |
| 58 | </I>><i> | |

| 66 | </I>sent by | |
| 67 | ><i> |> the client. Note the blank line separating the Subject: header from | |
| 68 | </I>the | |
| 69 | ><i> |> message body. Completely RFC compliant and easy to implement. Also | |
| 70 | </I>notice my | |
| 71 | ><i> |> MTA (in the 'greeting' line) is not Sendmail, but another popular | |
| 72 | </I>alternative | |
| 73 | ><i> |> called Exim. No problem if the mail-sending routines are implemented | |
| 74 | </I>in "SMTP | |
| 75 | ><i> |> client" form but a potential PITA [pain in the a**] if you wanted to | |
| 76 | </I>use | |
| 77 | ><i> |> command-line sending. Obviously some error-handling must be built in | |
| 78 | </I>><i> |> (500-series numbers in particular mean a rejected delivery) but this is | |
| 79 | </I>pretty | |
| 80 | ><i> |> trivial. | |
| 81 | </I>><i> | | |
| 82 | </I>><i> |I can see that then, thank you for clearing that up :) | |
