Topic: FA SMTP Modification

dear all

just developed a module to allow email sending via SMTP (PHPMailer lib based).

however, modification of 'class.mail.inc' file is required after module installation. Or I did not found another way of doing it.

if the core devs are willing to either integrate the module in future versions or provide some hooks to allow email functions replacement, I am willing to make the changes.

Regards,
S

Re: FA SMTP Modification

PHPMailer was not included as it would increase size of FA download. You can create a wiki page on it's integration.

Re: FA SMTP Modification

Perhaps the Phpmailer is good to use. But due to the size restriction the community have no interest to use. You can suggest a simple mailer class instead of it.

Re: FA SMTP Modification

gents,
I am not aware of such size restrictions, but anyway, the required files for PHPMailer are ~200k.

Not having such size restrictions, I tried to develop this functionality as a module, with user interface for setting up the things, but could'nt fully achieve as I could not "hook" programatically into mail sending code.

Anyway, if someone is interested, you can find the code on github
