What happens when you do a trace/net on ? What's the difference? On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 9:06 AM, Ben Brannen<ben.brannen-gmail.com> wrote:

I was able to narrow in on it a bit (after a good night sleep) and using the trace/net on function. Thanks Graham. at the command line: header: system/standard/email header/To: [ben.brannen-xxxxxxxxxxx.com]
>> probe header

Notice the From line is being set. I'm trying to pre-set it to the name of the server/website (configurable by a text file). However, it won't let me set the From address. When I tried to disregard it, it fails unless I set it back to 'none. But then it just sends out my address - which makes no sense to the recipient. Any suggestions? -ben On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 7:31 PM, Graham Chiu<compkarori-gmail.com> wrote:

try header: make system/standard/email [ from: holder-rebol.com ] Also, check the source for prot-esmtp.r in the source directory of your SDK. On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 3:38 AM, Ben Brannen<ben.brannen-gmail.com> wrote:

SEND assumes, perhaps incorrectly, that the From field in the header is of type email!. You could change system/user/name and system/user/email instead to get a better From line in your message. Regards, Gabriele.

Thanks everyone for the help. Several replies helped me out. * trace/net on function so I could see whats going on. Thanks Graham * and the comment by Gabriele... ...SEND assumes...that the From field in the header is of type email!....Thank you. I was able to work around this. I'll also look into the mezz function if I get time. Thanks for the code Tim. -ben On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 4:23 PM, Gabriele Santilli<santilli.gabriele-gmail.com> wrote:

Ben Try this .. in prot-esmtp.r replace the existing insert function with this one so that you can set the from header to {web server <someone-rebol.com>} insert: func [ "INSERT called on port" port "Opened port" data ] [ if string? data/1 [ use [ e ][ either parse/all data/1 [ thru "<" copy e to ">" to end ][ if error? try [ data/1: to-email e ][ net-error "ESMTP: invalid from address" ] ][ net-error "ESMTP: invalid from address" ] ] ] if not all [ block? :data parse data [email! into [some email!] string!] ][net-error "ESMTP: Invalid command"] confirm-command port ["MAIL FROM: <" data/1 ">"] foreach addr data/2 [ confirm-command port ["RCPT TO: <" addr ">"] ] net-utils/confirm port/sub-port data-check system/words/insert port/sub-port replace/all copy data/3 "^/."

Ben, 'send has got some gotchas in it. In some cases, making a reference to an object rather than a specific 'copy can cause an error. Send is a mezzanine function. That is, it is written in rebol, not native C. This means that you can source the function, copy the code, do a probe on the data structure that's being sent to the port. Example: either only [ address: copy address remove-each value address [not email? :value] message: head insert insert tail net-utils/export header-obj newline message content: reduce [from address message] ;; added probe content added ;; change insert smtp-port reduce [from address message] insert smtp-port content ;; might seem a little cumbersome, but might lead to a new 'send :) HTH tim -- Tim tim-johnsons-web.com http://www.akwebsoft.com
