SMTP Express dramatically increases the performance and dependability of
your e-mail enabled applications by intercepting, sorting, queuing, and
delivering outbound e-mail in the background.
Increase the Throughout
EasyMail SMTP Express speeds up e-mail delivery by offloading the delivery
task from your application. The standard version sends up to 64 messages
simultaneously. The Pro version handles up to 256 simultaneous messages
and is loaded with additional features.
Increase the Reliability
SMTP Express is an e-mail queuing and delivery system. It intercepts
messages from the EasyMail SMTP object, EasyMail .Net Edition
SMTP class, EasyMail Advanced API SMTP library
or other source and sorts, queues, and reliably delivers the messages in
the background.
Base Features
Make Your Application...
Fast And Reliable
SMTP Express reliably queues over 650,000 messages per hour, sends up to 64
messages simultaneously (256 with Pro version), makes your apps more responsive,
scales efficiently to multi-user systems, and ensures messages get delivered.
Send Up to 256 Messages Simultaneously
SMTP Express sorts the messages in queue so that they can be delivered in the
quickest way possible. Up to 64 messages can be delivered simultaneously (256
with Pro version), increasing throughput. With simultaneous delivery threads,
slow delivery of of any one particular message will not act as a bottleneck for
the rest. Overall performance is increased by about 10X. Specific details on
message throughput rates.
More Responsive
SMTP Express offloads the burden of sending mail over the Internet (which is slow)
from your application. This allows your application to respond quickly. For instance,
your application can send very large messages instantly and not encounter a "hang up"
if a message has trouble being delivered.
"Fire and Forget" Delivery
Ensuring that messages get delivered can be a tricky task. The Internet offers many
impassable obstacles:
- the recipient's e-mail server may be temporarily down
- your ISP may be temporarily down
- an Internet segment may be temporarily down
- a DNS server may be temporarily down
Programming your application to handle these situations can be daunting if not
impossible. When a messages is submitted to SMTP Express, consider it "fire and forget."
SMTP Express handles the low level delivery details. If a failure occurs, the message is
retried at user defined intervals. If a message can not be delivered after a user defined
expiration period, notifications can be sent to e-mail addresses or posted to files where
they can be picked up by your application.
You Don't Need Your Own SMTP Server to Send Mail
SMTP Express doesn't use your mail server or your ISP's mail server. Instead, SMTP Express
connects and sends messages to the mail server of the recipient�s address. For instance,
a message from [email protected] is sent directly to mail.aol.com instead of mail.yourdomain.com.
This takes the load off of your mail server and speeds up message sending significantly.
Multi-User Applications Scale Better
SMTP Express offloads the burden of network communications from your application. All network
communication is consolidated and processed in an efficient manner. Multiple instances of your
application will not tie up network resources, memory, or processor time.
SMTPExpress Professional Version
SMTP Express Professional contains all the features in the standard version, plus:
Up to 256 Outbound Connections
Sends up to 256 messages simultaneously, increasing the throughput of the standard version
by as much as 400%..
Multiple Connections Per Domain
SMTP Express Pro can establish more than one connection per domain, which increases throughput
to popular e-mail domains like yahoo.com, hotmail.com, aol.com, etc...
Limit the Number of Messages Per Connection
Limiting the number of messages per connection provides further control over how many connections
are established per domain, plus provides the added benefit of bypassing SMTP server spam filters
that are governed by the number of messages per connection.
Create Specific Routes for Specific Domains
For any specific domain, define a unique SMTP server to accept the delivery from SMTP Express Pro.
Monitor Delivery from your Apps
SMTP Express Pro can interface with your custom DLL to provide status information.
Other Features Include:
- Increased performance and domain resolution
- Control the domain name sent with the SMTP HELP command
- Specify the timeout value of the SMTP connection
- Specify the sender address of failed messages. Defaults to postmaster@
- Change the "pickup" directory
- Specify the maximum header size accepted by SMTPExpress
