-request depending on what other options are set. (Added in 7.34.0)
+Instead of a HELP or VRFY when issuing SMTP based requests. (Added in 7.34.0)
For example:
-If the \fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP option is specified then the request can be used to
-specify the RSET command. Otherwise a multiline listing is returned which can
-be used to specify a HELP request or, if used in conjuection with the
-\fICURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT\fP option, a EXPN request.
+Normally a multiline response is returned which can be used, in conjuection with
+\fICURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT\fP, to specify an EXPN request. If the \fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP
+option is specified then the request can be used to issue NOOP and RSET
+commands.
.IP CURLOPT_FILETIME
Pass a long. If it is 1, libcurl will attempt to get the modification date of
the remote document in this operation. This requires that the remote server
/* Send the VRFY command */
result = Curl_pp_sendf(&conn->proto.smtpc.pp, "VRFY %s", smtp->rcpt->data);
else
- /* Send the NOOP command */
- result = Curl_pp_sendf(&conn->proto.smtpc.pp, "%s", "NOOP");
+ /* Send the HELP command */
+ result = Curl_pp_sendf(&conn->proto.smtpc.pp, "%s", "HELP");
if(!result)
