e-mail

[gn]

I'm working on someone else's application. It sends e-mail by code.

Before the e-mail address he put smtp like so:

[smtp:fi********@address.com];

What does the smtp mean?

smtp is usually a mail server that sends email. For example smtp.xtra.co.nz sends my email.

what does the code look like?

It's a code allowing e-mail to pass through homeland security monitoing
without touching off a sodomistic rape of the sender by agents of the United
States government ... said to stand for Simple Minded Texan President.

Not that I care, but don't you ever consider posting such stuff under
another name? You do have a business and a reputation to protect, don't
you? What would your customers make of such posts?

All customers have the right to choose whomever they wish for their business.
I have the right to express my opinion. Being an Access developer is not so
precious that it could make me condone war crimes, and the torture and
slaughter of thousands upon thousands of people. Better to starve.

Is there some customer who doesn't like this? If you support these things I
don't want your work, your money, or anything to do with you. Walk away, ...
quickly, please!

I never post anything over another name.

Per gn:

It stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.

Haven't a clue what it means....

Then why had you not already starved (to your death) during the period
when there were war crimes ^2 (gassing the Kurds, etc.), and torture
and slaughter of HUNDREDS of thousands within Iraq before the ousting
of Saddam? I suppose you were, at the least, not condoning those
actions, either, eh? But what actions did you take to stem that tide,
oh sanctimonious one? Did you similarly publish OT comments here
targeting the perpetrator and welcome all comers to argue the heinous
nature of those actions lest they be considered politically incorrect?
This of course completely ignores the fact that your claim that the
SMTP's actions have led to torture and slaughter of thousands upon
thousands is ludicrous. I think the torture inflicted by those in the
coalition pales so completely when compared to the documented stories
of Hussein's actions that it renders any such comment thoroughly
laughable because of its utter ignorance as to reality.
Is there some customer who doesn't like this? If you support these things I

As is your absolute right.
I never post anything over another name.

Nor I.

And while we vehemently (perhaps that is not quite strong enough of a
term) disagree on this subject, you know by private postings that I
hold you in great esteem as far as a developer goes. I hope that my
violent, vehement and complete disagreement with your opinion on this
issue does not color that in any way. But I, no doubt like you, can
certainly live with that if it is to be.

Start a blog. You're starting to sound like a moron.

As Pete mentioned, STMP stands for "Simple Mail Transfer Protocol".
It's the "mechanism" that is used for moving e-mail around the net.

What it's doing in the code is beyond me, however I can guess how it
got there.

Outlook (and Lotus Notes, if memory serves) puts that in front of
e-mail addresses in their "contacts" to differentiate from the other
"address" types they support (Fax, phone, etc.). If someone wasn't
watching what they were doing in a cut and paste operation from either
of those applications, they might also include the "smtp:" portion,
since there isn't a space break from the actual address.

Thanks

It was DoCmd.SendObject with the smtp in the address. It seems to
be not needed but harmless according to the other reply.

Hi Mike,

Please read your history books. Sadam was a bad man, but that is not the point, the world is full of bad people. The point is that
America should know better. I love America as it is a land of geniuses and therefore should promote peace. But for some reasons it
is the most aggressive bully on the planet (you even shoot each other at a rate that is only met by countries like Colombia and
perhaps Nigeria). The reason for this is that you disenfranchise so many people (both at home and abroad).

Just read the histories of:
- Liberia (reject slave country)
- Vietnam (do you really need an explanation?)
- Panama (CIA supported the dictator)
- Iraq (CIA supported Sadam)
- El Salvador (there are some great movies out there in the mainstream media that tell that story).
- many other poor countries
or ask some of the outcasts in the US society how they feel.

It is people like Lyle that make your country great, not the news hosts at Fox that fed you the garbage above.

Besides, according to the BBC, the coalition still kills more people then all the Iraqi insurgents.

Armies or homeland security for that matter will never win any war; as there are no winners (just consider all the European wars and
what good they have done in the last 2000 years). Compassion, culture and education are our only hope.
