Hi,
Does anyone know of any classes or functions that enable binary attachments to be sent to newsgroups via email?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have an email to news gateway? If so, PHPMailer can send attachments really easy.

Thanks for the rpely, what is an email to news gateway?
I have a username and password that I use to log a newsgroup server that I subscribe to. Not sure if that answers the question?

Does your news server support email to news? Can you post to it via email?

Yes I can post via email. So PHPMailer is the answer I guess. What is it exactly, ideally I'd like to be able to write my own short script.

Hi,
I am trying to post to my newsgroup via phpmailer. I can email regular messages to myself with attachments do I know my setup is working.
I am not sure that I have setup correctly for newsgroups though. I have set the following variables as follows.......
$mail->From = "
me@myemail.com";
$mail->FromName = "My name";
$mail->Host = "news.mynewsgroupserver.com";
$mail->Username = "username";
$mail->Password = "password";
Does this look correct? I am not 100% sure that phpbuilder supports NNTP?
Thanks in advance.
