Hi David,

an excellent article and very nicely presented.

I wonder if using the array makestring method in your examples would leave
more room for the bits that you are showing, ie: instead of


if retc = -1 then do
   do rsp over smtpconx~cmdresponse
      say rsp
      end
   return
   end


you might reduce that to


if retc = -1 then do
   say smtpconx~cmdresponse~makestring
   return
   end

Which would leave the emphasis more firmly on the use of the classes in
non-error cases.

The other thing that might be good would be to say what the advantages are
of constructing an email in this way rather than for instance using Blat.

thank you for it,

Jon
