#1430 — MAILTO.ZIP fix request

ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/network/tcpip/mailto.zip

A small SRC.ZIP is included, which appears to be pretty 
straight-forward C++.
 
Assuming my ISP is for-real.net, and if there's a readme.txt in the 
current directory, then these arguments may fail:

/ssmtp.for-real.net (SMTP server)
/fnoreply@for-real.net (real From)
/tme@for-real.net (To)
/dreadme.txt (File containing the real message)

Replacing the "from" by the usage()'s default should work:

/fme@myisp.com (fake From)

Having to use a possible fake "me@myisp.com" isn't a problem, but my 
real email address or an own faked "norepy@ikom-ztation.net" may fail.
Of course I'd want it to accept anything, which at least will be as 
real as "my@myisp.com". It's a problem that it may fail with a valid 
"from", so it isn't obvious what's wrong and that a silly 
"/fme@myisp.com" will work.

If it fails, then its output looks like this:

Connecting to smtp.unet.nl on port 25... Done
Sending origin information... Done
Sending recipient information... Failed (from SMTPSESSION.CPP)
The SMTP command has failed.


If it works, using /fme@myisp.com, then this may be the output:

Connecting to smtp.unet.nl on port 25... Done
Sending origin information... Done
Sending recipient information... Done (from SMTPSESSION.CPP)
Sending mail data...

Bytes sent:     1862

Transfer complete.

Sending close... Done
