I wanted to add a feature in my SSIS project, to send out a text message when ever there is any failure. Now I thought that since they have a component for email, it should be fairly
simple to add my number#tmomail.net as par below link. The method in link works fine when we use outlook and send a message in number#tmomail.net it reach my phone in form of text rather
email.
But the problem is that, only when I try sending text using this technique using ssis, my company's SMTP server refuses to send out message because of the reciepient being untrusted.
So I wanted to seek some opinion if there are any open source SMTP server available out there which I can use for my POC to send out text message on SSIS package failure.
I tried doing with gmail, but it didn't worked

I ended up using the gmail smtp server (gmail.smtp.com). You can add your credential, and can start sending out email/texts.

My client is complaining that he is not receiving text notifications to his phone. I sent him some tests and he says he hasn't received any. He also confirmed that his phone carrier is open to all numbers. Am I able to verify the connection works properly on my end? Thank you.
Usually, when you send an e-mail (with Thunderbird or Outlook), you don't send it directly.
example: I have a gmail address and I want to send an e-mail to a myopera address. The process will be:
user->gmail server(gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com)->myopera server(in1.smtp.messagingengine.com)->final user who'll download it's email with pop/imap.
One of the inconvenient is the size: Imagine you have attachment of 50Mb: the limit of myopera is 60MB; but the limit of gmail is 25MB,So the mail will be refused whereas it would be accepted if it was send directly to myopera.
But I saw with telnet that, it is possible to send mail directly with SMTP commands.
I want to write a client-side Only web application which would convert a mail in a set of SMTP commands for sending it. I should be very basic and not support encryption
I don't know how to create a TCP connection from a client, so, here's my questions: Does a library already exist? If not, what I should use? I've read about the existence of WebSockets but that Ajax would be more universal.
Also, most of the actuals implementations of WebSocket I saw, don't work in my latests versions of web browser despite the fact they 'support it'. There's also the raw Socket API from the W3c (I've no idea of the web browsers which actually support it).So, I would like to not avoid statements telling it is impossible to create near raw TCP/UDP session. Since it is possible, I can't imagine nobody created a kind of library for dealing with protocols
You should take an alternative route.
If i had that issue i would still use a server side component of some sort, and just have the server contact to receiving mail server directly.
Given the email: "someuser#somedomain.tld" you could do a DNS MX record lookup on "somedomain.tld" and find the receiving mail server say "mail.somedomain.tld", then you could tell your mail send component to send the email directly to "mail.somedomain.tld", that way you would have an immediate feedback on whatever the mail went through or not.
For Objective-C you may use https://github.com/jetseven/skpsmtpmessage
By looking at the source you see how SMTP works.
Perhaps a special command or message header in order to be able to tell Google to not store a message sent using their SMTP server in the respective user's Sent mailbox.
There is no way to prevent the message from being saved to Sent. However, you can connect via IMAP after the send and delete the message from the Sent folder. Assuming you are using OAuth authentication, the same scope you use for SMTP allows you to connect via IMAP.
I was also stucked in this kind of scenario some time back, for me I could not find any standard API to solve this. But as a workaround I have created a rule which deletes all the mails which appears in Sent Folder. But beware of IMAP protocol, it allows users to store their there sent messages in custom folders also.
I create small form (Name, email, Subject, Message) in Flash. Want to send this by email using AS3 code.
Can we use this offline? Like, we fill all the detail and after submit then its go online and receive the detail in email
as #esimov said, security is not major concern then you have to use SMTPMailer, because your mail send in pure text form to the e-mail server. but if you want to use SMTPMailer then you can use some encryption and decryption method in it. This encryption packet with key are traceable. so If security is major concern then you must use airxmail written in actionscript so you can send and receive mail with SMTP, POP3, IMAP4 protocol. best example are given to send and recieve a mail.
May this will help you.
If you want to use an email client directly using Flash technology you need to stick with Flex. It has a robust backend interaction and even more it allows to do some cross scripting interactions.
However if you wish to use Flash and not Flex, actually there is an email sending application called SMTPMailer which sends attached files through emails with the Socket class available in the Player 9 and AS3. Please note, that for security reason is always better to send emails from the server side of the application. So another possibility would be to integrate the email sending part in a server side script.
Is it possible to retrieve the SMTP response of a mail. For example, I am sending a mail to non existing email id. Surely our server will send us a mailer daemon failure mail to our mail id. I need to capture that failure mail.
How its possible? please explain me. Some time we may enter more than one non existing email id, so i have to retrieve all the failure mail alone for every corresponding emails
Please guide me!
Thanks in advance,

I think I understood your question correctly now. As I understand, you are writing an application to send mail. And in your application, whenever you send a mail, you also want verify that if mail was delivered and also if it was not delivered then you want to get hold of the failure message in your application. Is that how you mean?
Well, if that is how you mean, then I think it is impossible to track the mail status with your apllication code. For instance if you are using java sendMail in your apllication you can only ensure that the send happened from your code successfully(without any send exceptions like java.net.SocketException or javax.mail.MessagingException). But, you can never ensure if the mail really reached the recepient. i.e. you can never track in your application if the mail was rejected due to wrong recepient address or any other error like illegal attachment at receipient mail server or errors like blocked sender id etc.
That is because any such error condition will be communicated by the receipient mail server to the sending mail server the information of which is present in the sent mail's header.
Does that answer your question? (Or did I understand your question correctly? ;-))
I am not sure if I am getting your question right. If you send an email to any non existent address say xxx#gmail.com from your address yyy#yourhost.com, the mail server at gmail.com replies to the mail server at yourhost.com with failure message and reason, with your delivery address and you receive the fialure mail automatically. you don't have to do anything extra in this.
If you are talking about seeing mail headers, then it depends on which client you are using. For instace, if you are using MS outlook, you can right-click on the message and click options and then see internet headers section to get mail headers. If you are using some web based mail then i am sure there will some option to view detailed mail headers.
The bounced messages are going to return to a mailbox. You should be able to configure that mailbox by properly setting the headers on the messages you send out. You would then need to monitor that mailbox, or have that mailbox deliver the messages to your program.
I would suggest you consider using VERP for all messages you send out. It will make it much easier for you to identify which email address a particular bounce belongs too. To do this you would need control of your mail server though. It takes some work configuring things.
To answer the question with more detail you need to tell us how your are sending messages, what type of mail server you are running, and how much control you have over the mail server.
On Unix, you can use "procmail" for this. Procmail is a service which can intercept your mails and process them following rules.
If you can access your mail my IMAP, I suggest to look at the Python module imaplib.
