POP and SMTP mail server

SMTP and POP are the protocols on which the process of email delivery and email pick-up is based. They interact at the beginning and the end of the “journey” of a message, defining how to dispatch and deliver it (from your outgoing SMTP server to the recipient’s one) and how to retrieve it (from the incoming server to the actual recipient’s inbox). Basically, you can send an email thanks to the “mailman protocol” SMTP and you can download it on your computer thanks to POP.

From a practical point of view, defining SMTP and POP (or POP3) information is essential when it comes to set up a mail client like Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Microsoft Outlook and ensure the normal process of sending and receiving messages.

Of course, every email provider has its own SMTP and POP parametres; and it can be a bit tricky to find out the right addresses. That’s why we made up a list the most common ones, in order to help you configure your client more handily.

Remember anyhow that only a professional SMTP service can guarantee a full deliverability for all your emails: that’s crucial in particular if you’re running an email marketing or newsletter campaign.

Timer funcitons in JavaScript: Reminder Script

Timers are used in web pages and we will discuss how to setup one and how to use one with an example. The function setTimeout() in function is used and here is its general syntax. mytime = setTimeout(expression, msec); mytime  is the identifier used to identify the current timeout function.  expression  is the statement that is to be executed after the specified time has ticked off.  msec  is the duration of time in milliseconds after which the expression will be executed.  You can see by using setTimeout function we can execute any function or object after a set of time. For example if msec is set 5000 then the expression will be executed after 5 seconds or 5000 milliseconds.  We will try one example where we will have four period buttons and each button will set a different time for another function to execute and display a alert button. We will call it as a reminder script and we will get one alert box based on the period button we click...

Real time changing Clock showing date and time

We can display a clock which will be showing the local time of the client computer by using JavaScript. Note that this time displayed is taken from user computer and not from the server.  We have seen in our  date object example how to display current date and time   where the current date and time is displayed once. Here we will try to display changing clock or real time change in date and time by using  setTimeout function . This setTimeout function we have used to trigger the time display function in a refresh rate of 1000 mill seconds ( 1 Sec ). This refresh rate can be changed to any other value. By changing the value to 5000 the clock will refresh and show the exact time once in every 5 seconds.  Here is the demo of this script and code is given below that.  Sat Apr 23 2016 08:27:22 GMT+0530 (IST)   Here is the code <html> <head> <title>(Type a title for your page here)</title> <script type="text/javascript...
