Sometimes files to be downloaded need to be protected, for example when download is available only for registered users of a website. To do this we need to make a “wrapper” script which checks if the file to be downloaded is available or not and we have to put the file in a place on our web server where they cannot be accessed through a url. But using Internet Explorer we can have some trouble to let our users download the files correctly. Now I’ll make an example using PHP as server-side scripting language.

In my experience of web developer, I always had some trouble in testing serverside generated emails, especially for seeing what happens with the headers and general format of the message. Especially while working with Windows (you know, Internet Explorer is still widely used).

Now I’m developing a very little SMTP dummy server which will allow you to see what happens when your PHP’s mail() function (or other language equivalent) is called in your server-side scripts. I won’t say anything about the release date, ’cause I’m working on it during free time. Now it only works for my special purposes, I don’t feel it’s ready for public.

I can only say that Micro SMTP Server is being written in Java (so it is cross-platform) and it will be open-source (or almost free of charge).

I will be present as visitor at the Varese Retrocomputing 2008. I want to invite and suggest all the readers of this web site to partecipate.

The Varese Retrocomputing 2008 conference will take place in Ghirla, Varese (Italy). It’s open to all and free entrance.

I hope this conference will last for many years, I will probably go with my friend “Faggy” as expositioners of our retrocomputers collection.

Hope to see you there!
