Hi

My hosting server does not let me send emails through mail function

How is it possible to send emails using an external Smtp_server?

I found this on the net but i am not sure how to integrate it into the WSN links.

please let me know what if it is possible

What is this forum for, if there is no reply at all?

not even saying "we don't know" or "we don't have time for that" etc.......

This forum is very clearly labeled as a self-help forum. You get what you pay for, and you haven't paid anything. Also code alterations would violate the terms of service of the basic edition. Anyhow, there is no supported SMTP method though what you posted should be integratable into the sendemail function.
