I ran into this problem when I wanted to send email from a HAppS web
app, routing it through gmail. There actually used to be an SMTP
client in HAppS but it was dropped a while ago.
The most common workaround appears to be, just use sendmail. But I
couldn't figure out a way to get sendmail to interface with gmail. (I
think there is a way, there are blogs on it, I just wasn't patient
enough to follow the directions.)
What I finally did is, I have successfully followed the instructions in
http://www.ericstockwell.com/?p=3
to send myself email from the command line. So I will probably use HSH
to run shell commands in my haskell web apps, to send email.
This process only took a few minutes, and seemed easier than the
postfix/sendmail solutions I came across.
Of course, this only works in unixy environments.

jmuk's HaskellNet project from last year?
sweet! was there any documentation created for this? examples? anything? have people tried to make this work with ssl/tls libs?
by the way there looks like some other gems in the haskellnet dir. what exactly was haskellnet - a project to code to the major network protocols? are these libs stable? how does the HTTP lib stack up against Network.HTTP? any info on this project would be appreciated. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
