What you are talking about is quite a complex set of protocols (SASL) and it can (and will) be built on top of the suite. But unfortunately for now the suite is not that full-featured.

Okay. I consider such a small of responses as if there was no point in discussing hypothetical library without actual code. I’ill come up with a Boost-ified version hopefully next week and maybe that would bake some discussion.

Sincerely yours,

I'd been contemplating dipping my toes into a Windows email client and openssl has a native Visual Studio port but I don't know of one for any SASL libraries. So the available open source email libraries tend to be *nix-oriented and have to be built with a ported *nix toolchain.
