(Xojo Plugin) SMTP over Multiple Hop SSH

Demonstrates how to send email (using TCP or TLS) tunneled through mulitple-hop SSH. The scheme looks like this:

Application => ServerSSH1 => ServerSSH2 => SmtpServer

The ConnectThroughSsh and UseSsh methods are added in Chilkat version 9.5.0.55 to accomplish this task.

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

Dim ssh1 As New Chilkat.Ssh

// Connect directly to the 1st SSH server.
Dim success As Boolean
success = ssh1.Connect("serverssh1.com",22)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(ssh1.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Authenticate using login/password:
success = ssh1.AuthenticatePw("ssh1Login","ssh1Password")
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(ssh1.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Connect through the 1st SSH connection to reach a 2nd SSH server.
// Note: Any number of SSH connections may be simultaneously tunneled through a single
// existing SSH connection.
Dim ssh2 As New Chilkat.Ssh
success = ssh2.ConnectThroughSsh(ssh1,"serverssh2.com",22)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(ssh2.LastErrorText)

// Authenticate with ssh2...
success = ssh2.AuthenticatePw("ssh2Login","ssh2Password")
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(ssh2.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

Dim mailman As New Chilkat.MailMan

// Tell the mailman object to connect to the SMTP server though the ssh2 tunnel (which itself is routed through ssh1).
// The connection looks like this:  Application => ServerSSH1 => ServerSSH2 => SMTPServer
success = mailman.UseSsh(ssh2)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(mailman.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Set the SMTP server.

// Set the SMTP login/password (if required)

// Create a new email object
Dim email As New Chilkat.Email

success = mailman.SendEmail(email)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(mailman.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Close the connection with the server.  This closes the tunnel through ssh2.
success = mailman.CloseSmtpConnection()
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog("Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.")
End If

System.DebugLog("Mail Sent!")

// Close the connection with ssh2.  (This closes the the tunnel through ssh1.)
// The connection with ssh1 is still alive, and may be used for more connections.
ssh2.Disconnect
