Chapter 13 – SMTP Client
Introduction
SMTP Client is used to establish a TCP session on an SMTP server running on port 25.
SMTP Client supports sending ASCII text or MIME-encoded binary attachment emails with different
media types and subtypes from the host/serial device through commands to the MultiConnect IP.
SMTP Client supports the following methods for sending emails:
• To the hosts/email addresses specified in the command prompt.
• To the hosts/email addresses pre-configured.
• To the hosts/email addresses entered in interactive mode.
Command:
send-mail [-b]
[-t "<Email-Id#1, Email-Id#2..>"]
[-c "<Email-Id#3, Email-Id#4..>"]
[-s "<subject>"]
[-d "<message-body>"]
Note: All of these commands are optional. The send-mail command prompts for the details required if
they are neither given as options nor pre-configured. Various scenarios are covered later in this chapter.
Important Notes:
• This application is applicable only in the MultiConnect IP in non-transparent mode.
• This application can be used only after the PPP link is UP with an IP Address on the modem
port. (Refer to Chapter 6 Prerequisite Configurations - Physical Link Established over the Modem
Port for more details)
• In the event of PPP link DOWN, the SMTP request triggers PPP link establishment.
