Sending Commands to a Remote Host
I am trying to write a script that logs into an SMTP server and authenticates as a user or verifies that a user exists. I can do all this from the command line but I don't know how to write a script to do this for me, I login and then the script stops, I'm sure this is some basic principle. Thanks tons, please point me in the correct direction.
