[net] Send mail using SSL and authentication

[Stefan at WPF <st...@googlemail.com>]

Hello,

I need to send an email using SSL (SMTPS) and authentication. In The Apache
Commons Net I could find the following classes:
- SMTPSClient class -> SSL, but no authentication?
- AuthenticatingSMTPClient -> Authentication, but no SSL?

Did I understand something wrong? How to use SSL and authentication
together? Thanks for any hint!


Best regards
Stefan

Commons NET is not intended as a full e-mail client; it only offers a
very low-level API.

For normal e-mail use, you should find Commons Email much easier.
