SPTM VIs Authentication

Status: Declined

Any idea that has received less than 3 kudos within 3 years after posting will be automatically declined.

As far as I can tell the SMTP Email VIs on the SMTP Email pallet do not support any sort of authentification.  Unless I am missing something this makes them close to useless.  It definately makes them usless to me.

 

I think there should be a login (and logout) VI where the login session is passed into the other VIs via a reference object.

I agree with the OP that there needs to be some authentication with the SMTP server if it's needed, but the login/logout functionality is already in the SMTP VIs if I am not mistaken. I'd go one farther to say that it would be a nice touch if SSL integration were added.
