The message there needs to be the complete message, including 
headers. The SMTP struct is pretty low-level.

My email.d (plus its dependencies, characterencodings.d, dom.d, 
and htmltotext.d) has the code to form a full message. It isn't 
very documented though.

https://github.com/adamdruppe/arsd


auto message = new EmailMessage();
message.to ~= "some email";
message.subject = "Subject"
message.setTextBody("hi");
message.send(RelayInfo("smtp://whatever", "user", "pass"));

Hi Adam,

   I am trying your email.d programming, and i am getting the 
below errors, can you please help me, i just used these programs 
(characterencodings.d, color.d, dom.d, htmltotext.d, email.d)

Program
import arsd.email;
void main() {

auto message = new EmailMessage();
message.to ~= "vino xxx.com";
message.subject = "Test";

3</b>");
message.addAttachment("text/txt", "C:\\Temp\\test.log", "Text");

What is your build command?

It looks like a module is just missing in the build.

If you are using rdmd, what is your directory layout too.

(I don't work Sundays btw so that's why I am so slow to respond.)

Hi Adam,

Thank you very much, I copied your folder arsd under the phobes 
folder in c:\D\... and the program was placed on my desktop and 
tried to execute it from the desktop via rdmd.

I don't think rdmd is seeing the dependency on htmltotext.d. Try 
importing it explicitly from your main:

import arsd.email;
import arsd.htmltotext;

/* the rest of your code */


Just that way rdmd will find it easier.

Hi Adam,

  Now the program works, but the attachment does not work as 
expected,

message.addAttachment("text/plain", "C:\\Temp\\Test\Test1.txt", 
"Test");


It takes the full path as file name eg: If the attachment file 
resides on the path C:\Temp\Test\Test1.txt" the attachment name 
file name that we receive is as "CTempTestTest1.txt" and also it 
does not attached the real file, instead the content of the file 
is "Test"

We Tried the below

message.addAttachment("text/plain", "Test1.txt", 
"C:\\Temp\\Test\Test1.txt");

After the above change the attachment file name is "Test1.txt" 
with the content "C:\Temp\Test\Test1.txt"

The orignal content of the file is "Hi This is Test Attachment".

What did you expect that "Test" argument to do if it was going to 
read the file as the content? I guess I should change the 
documents on this. The way it works is the filename argument is 
just what is seen in the email as a suggestion name for the user 
to download the attachment, and the content argument is what is 
what's inside that attachment.

Since the attachment name just suggests a name, and the user 
decides where to put it, it should NOT have a path name.

So try this instead:


addAttachment("text/plain", "Test1.txt", 
std.file.read("C:\Temp\Test\Test1.txt"));


so the name argument is JUST the name to suggest to the user, 
then the content argument gives the content of your file to 
attach - which here is read from the file on disk via the phobos 
std.file read function.

Hi Adam,

   Thank you very much, the program now works, but i need to make 
some adjustment, if possible can you please help me on this.

The variable "to" is of type string[] but we need it as 
Array!string
The variable "Subject" but we need it as Array!string.

You'll have to convert them yourself if that is a must, but why 
would you need that?

Hi Adam,

  I tried to replicate your code with what is required for me, and 
was able to successed 90% and stuck, can you please help me.

Using the below code are are able to receive the mail with the 
attachment, but the content of the attachment contains the Body 
text of the mail(Body1") rather than the original text and the 
mail body is empty, not sure where is the issue.

Code:
import std.net.curl;
pragma(lib, "curl");
import std.format;
import std.container.array;
import std.stdio;
import std.path;
import std.file;

struct RelayInfo { string server; }
struct MimeAttachment { string type; string filename; 
const(void)[] content; string id; }

class EmailMessage {

Array!string To, Body, headers;
string From, Subject, msg;

override string toString ()
{
	string T = "%-(%s,  %)".format(To[]); string B = "%-(%s,  
%)".format(Body[]);
	headers.insertBack("To: " ~ T);
	headers.insertBack("From: " ~ From);
	headers.insertBack("Subject: " ~ Subject);
	headers.insertBack("MIME-Version: 1.0");
     	msg.reserve(Body.length + 1024);
	foreach(header; headers) { msg ~= header ~ "\r\n"; }
	if(msg.length > 0) { msg ~= "\r\n"; msg ~= B; }
	
	return(msg);
}

const(MimeAttachment)[] attachments;

void addAttachment(string Fname, ) {
string mimeType = "text/plain";
string filename = baseName(Fname);
void[] content = read(Fname);
string id = null;

headers.insertBack("Content-Disposition: attachment; 
filename=\""~ filename ~"\"");
headers.insertBack("Content-ID: <" ~ id ~ ">");
headers.insertBack("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; 
file=" ~ filename);
attachments ~= MimeAttachment(mimeType, filename, content, id);
}

void send (RelayInfo mailServer = RelayInfo("smtp://localhost")) {
auto smtp = SMTP(mailServer.server);
string T = "%-(%s,  %)".format(To[]);
smtp.mailTo = T;
smtp.mailFrom = From;
smtp.message = toString;
smtp.perform();	
}
}

void main () {
string Filename = "D:\\DScript\\Tmailconfig.txt";
auto message = new EmailMessage();
message.To ~= "vino xxx.com";
message.From = "Server hosting.com";
message.Subject = "Test";
message.Body ~= "Body1";
message.addAttachment(Filename));
message.send(RelayInfo("smtp://smtp.awk.sed.com"));
}

You didn't add the attachment text.

You see how my toString 
http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/source/arsd.email.d.html#L108

includes a loop over the attachments?


http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/source/arsd.email.d.html#L183


Attachments need to be serialized in MIME format:
http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/source/arsd.email.d.html#L521


I didn't even do it perfectly there lol but it is good enough.



 override string toString ()
 {
 	string T = "%-(%s,  %)".format(To[]); string B = "%-(%s,  
 %)".format(Body[]);
 	headers.insertBack("To: " ~ T);
 	headers.insertBack("From: " ~ From);
 	headers.insertBack("Subject: " ~ Subject);
 	headers.insertBack("MIME-Version: 1.0");
     	msg.reserve(Body.length + 1024);
 	foreach(header; headers) { msg ~= header ~ "\r\n"; }
 	if(msg.length > 0) { msg ~= "\r\n"; msg ~= B; }
 	
 	return(msg);
 }




But you didn't even put the attachments in the string at all.
