Thanks!

There are a wide range of people from many different backgrounds that visit this BBS - what some people consider every-day language might just be offensive to others. As a result, we try hard to keep this BBS free from profanity.

Thank you for understanding.

PS, did the other thread help?

Sorry, I had no idea that was a profanity. I hear that word commonly in songs, childerns shows. It occurs 13 times in the bible. Ether you are pulling my leg or we are from different countries.

Ether way, I will not make the mistake of using that bad word again.

Does anybody know a good source of information or example code that handles ESMPT and EHLO? There is nothing about it in RFC821.TXT. Web searches so far have yielded very little.

If someone uses my nice SMTP mail sending program and they use a ESMTP mail server all sorts of fun begins like:

HELO Error: 220 ESMTP Spoken Here.

I never heard of ESMTP before today. Here is a sample message send:

220 nic.nasa.gov ESMTP Sendmail 8.7.1/1.35 ready at Thu, 28 Mar 1996 06:01:31 -0800 (PST)
