Mabe you can tell us exactly what you want to use it for? Mabe there is easier ways to do it? :-)

[Marmor]

i will send a mail with glb on all plattforms . No dll no api, only GLB code with maybe some inline call if this will work on all devices.
if it possible with auth. since freemailer blocked from serious email provider

You don't need anything fancy inline or otherwise for sending mail. Just a plain tcp-port open to the mailserver. The problems comes up when you try to send to some hosts that is doing different types of spam-filtering like gray-filtering or what it was called. That will deny the first try and then you have to do another attempt later again from the same host.

Also if you try to just send the mail over your own mailserver (smtp-server) you will give away username and password in your application. The easiest solution is to use the sendmail function from PHP and just access that over http with glbasic. Sendmail takes care of all the problems you can run into and keeps your passwords safe.

You can open a html document multiplaform. I mean - you're not wanting to send an email from a Wiz, do you?

[Moru]

But how does a local html-page send an email?

Maybe Javascript?
