Hello

The example I'm talking about is here. I compiled it and everything is fine. I want to send an email from my GMail account to a Hotmail account.This is the command line options I passed to the program:

-hsmtp.gmail.com:465 -fexample@gmail.com -sTest -m -c -t /home/abdalla/TLS_Test/Test.txt example@hotmail.com

I've compiled the example using KDevelop 4.7 on openSUSE 13.2. The executable is running but there is no response, I don't think the callback functions are even called. Plus the code does not have an option for me to provide the password for login. Thanks in advance.

I would suggest to single-step through the example with a debugger and see, where exactly the program fails or hangs. That way you gain more information of what might be going wrong.

In many cases, e-mail examples from the not recent past don't work any longer, because most e-mail providers require now the use SSL/TLS protocols. Old examples might not be prepared for that.

For anyone reading this, I have changed the jwSMTP to use the cURL library. It seems jwSMTP only supports plain login authentication, no security. This is the code I used.
