Starting from this code: int AsyncMail::SendMail(const WCHAR *address) { ::CoInitialize(NULL); IMailPtr oSmtp = NULL; oSmtp.CreateInstance("EASendMailObj.Mail"); oSmtp->LicenseCode = _T("TryIt"); // Set your sender email address oSmtp->FromAddr = _T("xxxxx"); // Add recipient email address oSmtp->AddRecipientEx(address, 0); // Set email subject oSmtp->Subject = _T("email from Visual C++ project in asynchronous mode "); // Set email body oSmtp->BodyText = _T("this is a test email sent from Visual C++ asynchronously"); // Your SMTP server address oSmtp->ServerAddr = _T("smtp.libero.it"); // User and password for ESMTP authentication, if your server doesn't // require User authentication, please remove the following codes. oSmtp->UserName = _T(xxxxx"); oSmtp->Password = _T("yyyyy"); oSmtp->FromAddr = _T("xxxxxxx"); // If your SMTP server requires SSL connection, please add this line oSmtp->SSL_init(); _tprintf(_T("Start to send email ...\r\n")); // Attach event connection pointer CMailEvents oEvents; oEvents.DispEventAdvise(oSmtp.GetInterfacePtr()); oEvents.m_bFinished = FALSE; oEvents.m_bError = FALSE; // Set asynchronous mode oSmtp->Asynchronous = 1; oSmtp->SendMail(); // Waiting for email sending ... while (!oEvents.m_bFinished) { MSG msg; while (PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE)) { if (msg.message == WM_QUIT) return 0; TranslateMessage(&msg); DispatchMessage(&msg); } // You can do other thing here ::Sleep(10); } // Detach event connection pointer oEvents.DispEventUnadvise(oSmtp.GetInterfacePtr()); if (!oEvents.m_bError) { _tprintf(_T("email was sent successfully!\r\n")); } else { _tprintf(_T("failed to send email with the following error: %s\r\n"), (const TCHAR*)oEvents.m_lastError); } if (oSmtp != NULL) oSmtp.Release(); return 0; } So, basically this code works but I'd like to send anonymous email or an email with a fake fantasy address. Suggestions?

In EASendMail, you can set any email address in FromAddr property: oSmtp->FromAddr = _T("xxxxxxx"); However, most email servers will check if the from address is same as the authenticated user. And I don't suggest that you use faked or anonymous email address, most email servers will reject your message or mark your email as spam.
