Help with SMTP prog

[MrSmellyBelly]

OK i made a smtp email prog, works great. Now i want to add a text box that displays all the info i send to telnetand what telnet sends back like when i send HELO it says HELO (then my ip address) and what not. I actually think i would work if i used winsock1.listen and then local port 25 but that doesnt work, no data comes up.

You are using telnet? Not Winsock -- You should use winsock, its a lot easier. You do not listen on port 25, to listen is to wait for a connection. You will need to connect to port 25.

No i am using winsock, just sending to data to the smtp server whcih is the telnet language(i guess you can call it that). But it doesnt display any data i receive, and i still havent fixed it...

The commands you are sending are referred to as SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) commands. You should recieve data from the server the moment the connection is established.
