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

//  The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.

//  Set the SMTP server.
oMailman:SmtpHost := "smtp.chilkatsoft.com"

//  Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
oMailman:SmtpUsername := "myLogin"

//  The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
//  open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the

//  Some SMTP servers do not actually send the email until 
//  the connection is closed.  In these cases, it is necessary to
//  call CloseSmtpConnection for the mail to be  sent.  
//  Most SMTP servers send the email immediately, and it is 
//  not required to close the connection.  We'll close it here
//  for the example:
nSuccess := oMailman:CloseSmtpConnection()
