Hello,

I want to establish a SMTP connection through a socket, then dialog with the server using a stream. I thought I could to it like this: //-------------------------------------------- #include #include

using namespace std; using namespace boost::iostreams;

... int theSocket = socket(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0); connect(theSocket, ...);

file_descriptor fdDevice(theSocket); stream_buffer fdstream(fdDevice); iostream os(&fdstream);

string answer; getline(os, answer); cout << answer << endl; os << "HELO xxxxx" << endl; getline(os, answer); cout << answer << endl; os << "MAIL FROM: " << endl; getline(os, answer); cout << answer << endl; ... //-------------------------------------------- But nothing seems to be written nor readen to/from the socket except for the first getline. What am I doing wrong here ?

Try flushing the stream after each write.

Thanks in advance for any help.
