I have an application running on IIS. I have a webpage that contains normal EmailTo, cc, Body etc. fields. I want to integrate client outlook to this page. Please guide me what to do.
You can either:
Use mailto url on the web page.
in case of IE, you can use the Outlook Object Model in you client side script, but your site must be trusted to be able to do that.
On the server side, you can use EWS to connect to Exchange Server if that is what the user uses. But you will need to know the user name and password.

I have recently developed a website for a client and don't have much experience working with emails. I have set up and configured an info#ourdomain.com email address and can access it through our web hosting service.
However I want to be able to get my client to log into the email so they can begin working with it, ideally with Windows mail.
This is the information I have been given by the host (I changed all the information for security).
Information Provided
Would be great if I could get a step by step on what options to choose, account type, and where to put the certain port numbers etc.
Thanks in advance
The problem is -
" I have to design one website, which will contain number of blocks. Each block will refer to different email client. That means, a user of this site can see his/her all mail clients in one one blocks."
The user will provide his/her existing mail clients information (Username and Password) at the time of registering into this site.
So, when user comes to the site he will login by providing username and password of this site (and not with user name or password of any of his mail clients) and he will see his home page containing all his existing mail clients opened directly in one one block (without logging in to any of the mail client).
Basically, this website will help the user to use all mail clients in one page.
Will anybody suggest how to do this task ?
It will be better if working codes will be provided.
This sounds quite difficult - you will need to make a good web mail client, and it is very hard to compete with the existing services in this area. For instance, it would be hard to make a webmail client as good as the one gmail has.
If you can make a good webmail client, the rest is quite easy - the user would give login details for POP/IMAP services for each of their email services, and then you could make your server log in to each of them and pull back any mail to display.
It may be easier for you to purchase existing webmail client software, and then wire it up to a database containing user login details to make the website you require.
I've used this component in the past and may help with sending and reading emails/attachement from a variety of sources.

I am so confused. My simple requirement is: i have an application which contains confirmation form i.e. nib file. It contains some textFields like name, age, email etc. I simply want when somebody click on submit button application send background and automatic email to email defined in textField. that email contain all information like name, age etc. User need not to fil anything and it should work in background. There are so many application do the same thing. I am creating booking application.
So how can i impliment this behaviour.
Apple does not provide a way to do this - and for good reason. Sending emails from the phone automatically introduces a lot of security risks.
I am willing to bet that the apps that do this use an intermediary server to which they post the data. When the data is posted then the server handles the sending of the emails.
To do this:
Send an HTTPS POST request to your server application.
From your server application, send an email via SMTP (or APIs built on top of SMTP).
Google AppEngine provides a simple and cheap way to create such a web service, running on top of Google's cloud-computing infrastructure. The sending mail from AppEngine help document includes detailed examples of how to send mail from your server application (assuming you use the Python version of Google AppEngine).
Unfortunately, there is no official feature for this but you could download a third-party library. Refer here for a couple of suggestions.
How do I use Google Apps' email services to send mail using the CodeIgniter email class? The email class seems to prefer SMTP, and I was going through the clients Google Apps account. I can't find any place within the Google Apps settings for SMTP. Does anyone know of a solution for this issue?
Right you don't find it because CodeIgniter uses the "mail" PHP function.
For some reasons only the most drunken PHP core developer knows about - this function do not support SMTP and worse even the admin can't configure SMTP usuage on Unix (it is possible to do this on windows - making the PHP design look even more crazy).
There are a few SMTP libraries out there that can handle SMTP Email, just use them
http://pear.php.net/package/Mail
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/
http://swiftmailer.org/
or the Email classes from the Zend Framework which are uncoupled from the rest so easy to use with CodeIgniter.
Here is a blog post detailing instructions:

Extract From link:
Why send email with Gmail rather than
the server's SMTP configuration? There
are a number of advantages I see for
doing this: Ability to develop locally
and test email sending functionality
without going to lengths to setup a
local mail server. Ability to utilise
Google Apps emails to send email from
emails which are on your own domain.
Ability to have a reference of the
mail you send using this method in the
"sent" folder on your Gmail account.
Does anyone know of a free, anonymous smtp service? I want to give users of my app the ability to occasionally send me an anon email without having to configure a server of enter their email account. I guess I could setup a gmail account for this purpose and embed the credentials in the app but I hope it won't be necessary. In case it sways your answer, this is a thick client (.NET Console) app.
I think that what you're asking for is called an open relay.
If there were such a thing, wouldn't it immediately be swamped by spammers?
You might be better off setting up some kind of commenting tool on your website, that sends you an email with the contents of whatever form the user submits. Then if you go that far, it shouldn't be difficult to add a form to your app that automatically makes the full HTTP request (transparent to the user, in the background).
If you run your own mail server, you can simply configure the app to deliver mail directly to it. Many web hosting companies also provide mail hosting if you don't want to run it on your own hardware. Gmail via Google Apps for your domain might be an option. It's free. But their anti-spam measures might prevent delivery. Better to have a server you can control, I think. Bottom line, though, is you don't need an anonymous SMTP relay server to get the job done.
