email client lib

[Unknown W. Brackets]

Sure.

First, I recommend Exim, if you're on Linux or similar.  Otherwise, I'll 
have to suggest something like Argosoft or IMail, but I don't really 
like either of those.  Windows SMTP servers aren't so good in my 
experience.  Maybe I should fix that, but I don't have time at the moment.

This is just really trimmed down code from my use of it, and I didn't 
spend much time on it.  There are comments, but if you have any 
questions or if anything doesn't make sense, let me know.

It's not in a class, because I was too lazy to slop all the functions 
(which are much more separate in my use of them) into a class, but I can 
do that if it makes it more understandable.

It also isn't really written for sending emails to multiple recipients 
in one round.  It would only take minor changes for this, though (just 
RCPT TO, really.)

As it would happen, I'm using this for a daemon that runs on a server, 
checks various services on the server, diskspace, the like, and sends 
off various emails if anything is a rye.  Similar to your plan, somewhat.
