M-Box
Supervisione LiberaM-Box is a product which allows e-mails to be sent from a Super-Flash application. It consists of two complementary modules: C-MailBox and MailBox.

The C-MailBox customer module is a MicroC driver which integrates in a Super-Flash application to send the data needed to compose an e-mail (address of the sender and of the receiver, subject and text of the message) to MailBox by means of Automa's SSMTP protocol.
Architecture

The MailBox module is a Windows application, with a minimal interface which carried out the server function as it receives the information needed to compose a message from the Clients. In turn, MailBox is client towards the mail servers; it sends and received e-mails by means of the SMTP and POP3 protocols.

The advantages of M-Box
Useful
Thanks to M-Box, a plant managed with Super-Flash is able to send e-mails on its state of operation, for supervision applications which operate in DOS environment as well.
Simple
M-Box was born to simplify the operations of sending e-mails. C-MailBox sends the data needed to compose a message (address of the sender and of the receiver, subject and text) to MailBox, which internally solves the complexity of composition and sending e-mails.
Flexible
Thanks to the presence of the two MailBox and C-MailBox modules it is possible to implement different architectures of the product, from the "Stand Alone" one (where both modules are found in a single PC) to the "Distributed with dedicated server" one (where the Client C-MailBox are installed on the PCs along with Super-Flash applications, whereas MailBox is found on a dedicated PC).
