Hello Steve, it is possible to create HTTP tunnels for other protocols with the 3.0 API, but you will still have to implement the protocol to be tunnelled. See

Hello Tom, no it is not. Protocols for transferring EMail are SMTP or IMAP. HttpClient implements HTTP. Browsers do lots more than just HTTP, that's why most of them chose to implement mailing functionality as well. But HttpClient is intentionally focused on HTTP alone, which is tricky enough. There is a standard Java API for sending EMail in J2EE: http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/ You can probably get it running with J2SE as well. It includes support for multipart mail: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/api/javax/mail/package-tree.html http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/api/javax/mail/Multipart.html hope that helps, Roland "Gerdes, Tom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 19.10.2004 21:10 Please respond to "Commons HttpClient Project" To "Commons HttpClient Project" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc Subject Is it possible to send and email using HTTPCLIENT? Can I just send a multipart post to an email server with attached files using Httpclient? Would this work for an email? If so, does anyone have an example of doing this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
