Try looking on Google Groups for "Available C++ Libraries". There
probably something related to communications. It cannot be truly
platform-independent. It only can be cross-platform. Not all
platforms out there have internetworking capabilities.

It's not easy to find a free library for sending emails ,which is
platform independent.

But you can create the library yourself,and try to do as follow
Separately find the special MailAPI in the special OS ,such as MS
Windows ,linux and so on.
And then add some codes that can distinguish the OS version. in order
that With different OS,your program will call different library.
Of course ,you can encapsulate this library into a dynamic
library(dll),and set a general interface to the caller.

In theory, any platform supporting Berkeley Sockets (including WinSock)
should be source-compatible with SMTP.

If yazwas were to get BLAT.EXE, and shell to this with system("blat ..."),
they could switch at Linux time to some other mail sender. But why isn't
BLAT trivially portable?

(All off-topic though...)

If its hard to find a 'platform independent' library, then I would like
a cross-platform, or even a Unix library which has the most priority
now for me
