Sun Java System Messaging Server 6 2005Q4 MTA Developer's Reference

Example 4 Using an Input Procedure to Generate the Message Body

The program shown in Example 7–4 uses an input procedure as the source for the body of a message to be sent. In the program, the input procedure msg_proc will read input until the runtime library routine fgets() signals an EOF condition, for example, a control-D has been input. The address of the procedure msg_proc is passed to mtaSend() using a MTA_MSG_PROC item code. The mtaSend() routine repeatedly calls the msg_proc procedure, until a negative value is returned by the procedure.
