Boost.Asio and the Sockets Library both have SSL support. The latter has SMTP server class but unfortunately no client. I found an example client but it uses the simple C socket.h.

Update: Here are some real working examples. They all support SSL or TLS.

  • Msmtp: An SMTP client and SMTP plugin for mail user agents such as Mutt
  • sSMTP: Extremely simple MTA to get mail off the system to a Mailhub
  • libESMTP: lib that implements the client side of the SMTP protocol
