POP3 requires authentication

[ahaws]

Hello all.

I created a VFP application that would use a class WinIpStuff to sendmail().

I was able to get the class working, however, when I try to send the email, I get Error 530: authentication required.

In the class help, it states that on a mail server that requires pop3 logon before sending mail - this will not work unless you otherwise log in via POP3 first.

So, How do I prompt the login?

Is there a way to do this programatically?

thanks in advance!
