Secure email
« on: January 17, 2007, 11:15:59 AM »

I'm evaluating using a secure email server ( uses SSL for smtp and pop ) to transfer medical information.  Is there a way to configure the emai protocols in Rebol to communicate.  If I use a  direct SSl: connection, would I have to write headers to conform to smtp protocols?

You would have to purchase Rebol/Command to use SSL, and you would have to re-write the protocols.

Thank you for your help.  I do have rebol command and the SDK/command, but I am hesitant to tackle rewritting the protocols.

Graham, AFAIK it's a small change. (Eg, in POP it's a matter of using open-proto/secure/sub-protocol port 'ssl instead of just open-proto port in open.)

I made some changes to the esmtp protocol that should work with ssl, and it doesn't quite do so.

I can send mail using smtp.gmail.com which supports ssl, but the protocol then times out waiting for a response from gmail after the data has been sent ie. after the final "."

See http://202.78.147.203/Rebol_Scripts on how to send secure email to gmail.
