SMTP NTLM Authentication

See more SMTP Examples

Demonstrates how to specify NTLM authentication for sending email via SMTP. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$mailman = chilkat::CkMailMan->new();

# Specify your particular mail server's SMTP settings.
$mailman->put_SmtpHost("smtp.my_mail_server.com");
$mailman->put_SmtpPort(587);
$mailman->put_StartTLS(1);

# This assumes you know your SMTP server supports NTLM authentication.
# To explicitly request NTLM authentication, set the SmtpAuthMethod property = "ntlm".
$mailman->put_SmtpAuthMethod("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.

$useCurrentWindowsUser = 1;

if ($useCurrentWindowsUser == 1) {
    # If you are running on Windows, and you wish for the NTLM credentials of the current logged-on Windows user to be used,
    # set the username and password to the string "default"
    $mailman->put_SmtpUsername("default");
    $mailman->put_SmtpPassword("default");
}
else {
    # Explicitly specify the SMTP username/password
    # The SMTP username is your email account username, which is often your email address.
    $mailman->put_SmtpUsername("your_smtp_username_or_email_address");
    $mailman->put_SmtpPassword("your_password");
}

$email = chilkat::CkEmail->new();

$email->put_Subject("This is a test");
$email->put_Body("This is a test");
# Don't forget to change this to use your email addresses..
$email->put_From('Chilkat Support <support@chilkatsoft.com>');
$success = $email->AddTo("Chilkat Admin",'admin@chilkatsoft.com');
# To add more recipients, call AddTo, AddCC, or AddBcc once per recipient.

$success = $mailman->SendEmail($email);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $mailman->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$success = $mailman->CloseSmtpConnection();
if ($success != 1) {
    print "Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly." . "\r\n";
}

print "Mail Sent!" . "\r\n";
