Hi, you wrote:

Can you tell us what's missing?
I had problems, not due to delcarations, as compile went fine, but the
linker complained about ntohl() etc., depending upon optimizing or not.

Simplest is possibly speaking SMTP yourself to TCP port 25 of an wellknown,
nearby gateway, then you can ignore MX records and all that.
