ear agent_suwastica,
Gmail has two servers,I think so. smtp.gmail.com is for incomming mail server.But there are too much prefixes like STARTTLS. You have to google all the prefixes. I give you some of this that can be use in WINSOCK CONTROL ----
1. PON
2. CON
3. TLS
4. EXT
5. LST
6. DIS
7. REC
---- and so on.
CON for connection, LST for List, Ext for MIME Extension, REC for receive, Dis for Display I think.
Thanks....
