Basic configuration of the built-in standard SMTP proxy used for sending mail messages.

Ctrl_All_MailS

Host
Address of your ISP's SMTP server, which OmniMix has to use to deliver normal (and - if chosen - mixmaster encrypted) mail.

Port
Port of your ISP's SMTP server, which OmniMix has to use to deliver normal (and - if chosen - mixmaster encrypted) mail, usually 25, 465 for SMTPS.

Timeout - Connect
Timeout setting for connecting to the host [ms].

Timeout - Read

Timeout setting for reading from the host [ms].

SSL
Necessity of an encrypted communication.
Options:
Disabled No encrypted communication.
TLS enabled TLS is used if available.
TLS required Connection aborted if TLS not available.
Implicit SSL No connection without implicit SSL.

Tor
Disable Tor for communication with the host or select SOCKS version to be used for accessing the Tor system.
Options:
Disabled Tor will not be used.
SOCKS Version 4 requires declaration of the mail host's IP address.
SOCKS Version 4a accepts host name of the mail host.
SOCKS Version 5 accepts either the mail host's IP or host name.
Caution:
Using one Tor instance with different hosts at the same time the connections can be assigned to each other and your privacy may be gone!

Auth.
Use username / password authentication to log into your ISP's SMTP host for mail delivery.

User
Username provided by your ISP to access their SMTP server (with authentication activated).

Passwd
Password provided by your ISP to access their SMTP server (with authentication activated). It will be stored DES encrypted in the OmniMix .ini file.

From
'From:' entry of the mail directed to the first remailer.
A fake address may lead to a rejection by the mail host of your ISP.

Helo ID
Identity name of the mail client establishing a connection to the SMTP server using either the SMTP EHLO or HELO command verbs.
Beware of leaving this field empty, if you intend to establish an anonymous connection, as then the name of the local computer is used when hailing the SMTP server.
