your company wants a commercial application (not open source), where the
third party provides source code?
That policy works for mainframe applications, but not for small components
for which there are a hundred competitors.
While the request is absurd on its face, you may be able to find a control
vendor that is releasing an smtp component as a good faith gesture to get
your to buy their other (less visible) libraries. That is exactly what
Dundas did. The library they sold was the TCP library. The SMTP source was
a freebie that used their library.
Perhaps if you do the same thing, and look for a company that makes a TCP or
Sockets library, you can find someone else in the same situation.
(Doubtful, though... the framework already provides a socket library).

Does anybody know of any good C# SMTP libraries that do not use
System.Web.Mail (i.e. they don't require CDO)? In particular I'm looking
for ones that provide the source code, but that are not "open source".
Our company is getting away from using any open source.
We are converting an application that was originally written in C++ that
used the Dundas SMTP library (source code was provided). Problem is that
I don't believe Dundas has a C# version, it's strictly C++.
Thanks in advance.
