Bertrand SIMONNET | e6cd738 | 2015-07-01 15:39:44 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 25 | .SH NAME |
| 26 | CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTH \- SMTP authentication address |
| 27 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 28 | #include <curl/curl.h> |
| 29 | |
| 30 | CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAIL_AUTH, char *auth); |
| 31 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 32 | Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. This will be used to |
| 33 | specify the authentication address (identity) of a submitted message that is |
| 34 | being relayed to another server. |
| 35 | |
| 36 | This optional parameter allows co-operating agents in a trusted environment to |
| 37 | communicate the authentication of individual messages and should only be used |
| 38 | by the application program, using libcurl, if the application is itself a mail |
| 39 | server acting in such an environment. If the application is operating as such |
| 40 | and the AUTH address is not known or is invalid, then an empty string should |
| 41 | be used for this parameter. |
| 42 | |
| 43 | Unlike \fICURLOPT_MAIL_FROM(3)\fP and \fICURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT(3)\fP, the address |
| 44 | should not be specified within a pair of angled brackets (<>). However, if an |
| 45 | empty string is used then a pair of brackets will be sent by libcurl as |
| 46 | required by RFC2554. |
Elliott Hughes | 82be86d | 2017-09-20 17:00:17 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 47 | |
| 48 | The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this |
| 49 | option. |
