Ok, my socket programming skills aren't very good at
the moment (almost non-existant but not quite) so I
can't comment as to whether or not your method will
work, but some things I see that may be wrong are ...
1)
what is DEST_PORT? (ie where does it get setup) I'm assuming
you set it to 25 some place else?
2)
Why do you set the members of dest_addr and THEN clear
the structure out with the memset? I think you may want
to move the memset BEFORE you do dest_addr.sin_family = PF_INET
etc. This may make the connect call a little confused
as to where it's trying to connect to. Just a guess though.
