Changed the name of variable l, in several functions, which represents
the length of strings being sent to the server, to len which is more
meaningful and consistent with other code in smtp.c and elsewhere.
Reworked smtp_authenticate() to be simpler and easier to follow.
Variables and now initialised in their definitions and if no username
and password are specified the function sets the state to SMTP_STOP and
returns immediately, rather than being part of a huge if statement.
The size of the email can now be set via CURLOPT_INFILESIZE. This
allows the email to be rejected by the server, if supported, and the
maximum size has been configured on the server.
I think curl should ignore this case and smtp.c should test for this.
Since RFC-2821 seems to allow a "null reverse-path". Ref. "MAIL
FROM:<>" in section 3.7, page 25.
Fixed the order of the preferred SMTP authentication method to:
AUTH CRAM-MD5, AUTH LOGIN then AUTH PLAIN.
AUTH PLAIN should be the last as it slightly more insecure than AUTH LOGIN
as the username and password are sent together - there is no handshaking
between the client and server like there is with AUTH LOGIN.
Previous interfaces for these libcurl internal functions did not allow to tell
apart a legitimate zero size result from an error condition. These functions
now return a CURLcode indicating function success or otherwise specific error.
Output size is returned using a pointer argument.
All usage of these two functions, and others closely related, has been adapted
to the new interfaces. Relative error and OOM handling adapted or added where
missing. Unit test 1302 also adapted.
As I modified conn->bits.tcpconnect to become an array that holds one
bool for each potential connection all uses of that struct field must
index it correctly.
The new http_proxy.* files now host HTTP proxy specific code (500+ lines
moved out from http.c), and as a consequence there is a macro introduced
for the Curl_proxyCONNECT() function so that code can use it without
actually supporting proxy (or HTTP) in builds.
The PROT_* set of internal defines for the protocols is no longer
used. We now use the same bits internally as we have defined in the
public header using the CURLPROTO_ prefix. This is for simplicity and
because the PROT_* prefix was already used duplicated internally for a
set of KRB4 values.
The PROTOPT_* defines were moved up to just below the struct definition
within which they are used.
The protocol handler struct got a 'flags' field for special information
and characteristics of the given protocol.
This now enables us to move away central protocol information such as
CLOSEACTION and DUALCHANNEL from single defines in a central place, out
to each protocol's definition. It also made us stop abusing the protocol
field for other info than the protocol, and we could start cleaning up
other protocol-specific things by adding flags bits to set in the
handler struct.
The "protocol" field connectdata struct was removed as well and the code
now refers directly to the conn->handler->protocol field instead. To
make things work properly, the code now always store a conn->given
pointer that points out the original handler struct so that the code can
learn details from the original protocol even if conn->handler is
modified along the way - for example when switching to go over a HTTP
proxy.
Similar to what is done already for RCPT TO, the code now checks for and
adds angle brackets (<>) around the email address that is provided for
CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT unless the app has done so itself.
It helps to prevent a hangup with some FTP servers in case idle session
timeout has exceeded. But it may be useful also for other protocols
that send any quit message on disconnect. Currently used by FTP, POP3,
IMAP and SMTP.
Previously the host name buffer was only used if gethostname() exists,
but since we converted that into a curl private function that function
always exists and will be used so the buffer needs to exist for all
cases/systems.
A shared library tests/libtest/.libs/lihostname.so is preloaded in NTLM
test-cases to override the system implementation of gethostname(). It
makes it possible to test the NTLM authentication for exact match, and
this way test the implementation of MD4 and DES.
If LD_PRELOAD doesn't work, a debug build willl also workk as debug
builds are now made to prefer a specific environment variable and will
then return that content as host name instead of the actual one.
Kamil wrote the bulk of this, Daniel Stenberg polished it.
the global timeout if set. Also, as was reported in the bug report #2956437
by Ryan Chan, the time stamp to use as basis for the per command timeout was
not set properly in the DONE phase for FTP (and not for SMTP) so I fixed
that just now. This was a regression compared to 7.19.7 due to the
conversion of FTP code over to the generic pingpong concepts.

- SMTP falls back to RFC821 HELO when EHLO fails (and SSL is not required).
- Use of true local host name (i.e.: via gethostname()) when available, as default argument to SMTP HELO/EHLO.
- Test case 804 for HELO fallback.
properly in angle brackets. Recipients provided with CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT now
get angle bracket wrapping automatically by libcurl unless the recipient
starts with an angle bracket as then the app is assumed to deal with that
properly on its own.
