    Set ComSmtpHost Of hoMailman To "smtp.my_mail_server.com"
    Set ComSmtpPort Of hoMailman To 587
    Set ComStartTLS Of hoMailman To True

    // This assumes you know your SMTP server supports NTLM authentication.
    // To explicitly request NTLM authentication, set the SmtpAuthMethod property = "ntlm".
    Set ComSmtpAuthMethod Of hoMailman To "ntlm"

    // Note: Normally you should avoid setting the SmtpAuthMethod.
    // SMTP servers tell the connecting client the authentication methods it will accept when the initial connection is made.
    // Chilkat will automatically use this information to select and use the most secure auth method supported by the server.
