Hi,


I need to send an e-mail using
the PINK Ethernet Module and my problem
is that all e-mail acounts need password authentication.

Do you have an example in orther to send an e-mail ?

THanks, Joe


PS: Do you know an other way to send an e-mail using
the PINK Ethernet Module ?

    Joe,

    The current PINK Firmware does not support authentication. This is listed on the description on our website. If your e-mail server requires authentication you won’t be able to send e-mail through that server.

    Thanks again Chris :


    The problem I have is that I don't understand
    about a mail server without authentication.

    Because it seems that all e-mails need authentication.

    Do you know how can I configure an account
    in order to use the PINK

    or

    Do you know where can I find a no-authentication service ?

    Thanks , Joe

    You could create your own virtual e-mail server on your PC, although I cannot provide any information on doing so. Some ISP’s don’t require authentication. For example, locally I am told COMCAST does not, however I don’t have the service so I cannot be sure.
