What are your thoughts about using this class when you consider the 'greylisting' topic? http://jl.ly/Email/grey11.html

Hi Richard,

the class is not affected by graylisting or SPF because it will not deliver the e-mails to the recipient server directly. Instead it will rely on your e-mail server to deliver the e-mail.

I've seen that your example works using a local smtp host.
But what will happen when using an external host?

Hi Sceptre,

forget the last comment, I had direct delivery in mind, which is not what this is about.
I'll update the rating asap.

Thanks!

correct. The class will deliver to an smtp server of your choice. The idea behind it is the "classic" business use where you want to send e-mails for your company and want all communication to pass through your corporate SMTP server.

This "external SMTP server" can be on localhost as well.
