Marco,

Does that imply that you have had success otherwise?  How did you send the 
mail?  I _think_ it ultimately goes through SMTPClient, but it's a real rats' 
nest and I could be missing something.  Also, how did you create the message?  
Most of the examples seem to have the headers created "in the text" as opposed 
to generating them from supplied aspects :(

Interestingly, I am having trouble sending a plain-text message from Pharo.  I 
_have_ had success sending an attachment. I have not bothered to see if I can 
read the result, but the server delivered it, and LookOut!! seems to think 
there is something attached to the message.

The weird thing is that my attemps to send plain text resulted in 
(superficially at least) a reasonable conversation with the server (I added 
enough tracing to see the sends and the server's responses).  The server 
reports accepting the message for delivery, but it never arrrives.  I am 
**reasonbly** certain my email address is correct, but obviously that is 
something that needs to be re-re-re-checked.

Something in Mantis made reference to <> around email addresses; I think it was 
only in the case of multiple recipients, but it is worth a look.  The server 
reports itself as sendmail, but it would not surprise me if it another piece of 
Microsoft crap-ware that claims to be something it is not.

I had a problem with Email and the character encoding. Sending mail with the 
character 'ÄÖÜ' inside the mail body killed the mail server. So - look at 
correct encoding of the message text.

Betreff: [Pharo-project] MailMessage

Hello all,

I am looking for a way to format text in email.  Html comes to mind (yes, I 
hate those emails too, but it would work and the recipients don't know any 
better<g>), as does attaching a file with the data.

I recently had to switch smtp servers, and for whatever reason, can no longer 
send html email.  The server says it accepted it, but the mail is never 
delivered; send plain text through it, and it works.

It could simply be that the server wants no part of html email, but it would be 
nice to repeat the test with another client, and/or try attachments as a 
solution to my problem.  I found MailMessage, and could not figure out how to 
set the recipient.

After some searching, I found 151 on Mantis; it is a five year old fix from 
Frank Shearer for adding recipients.  If I had to guess, things are still 
broken, but I will try it and see what happens.  Sending this now while I'm 
thinking about it.

If anybody knows a way around my current problems, please don't feel that you 
would be cheating me out of the fun of solving it myself :)

Bill
