The fifth of five
The .NET submission binding is the fifth of five in the chapter and the most briefly described: the section only names the folder with its description — api\dotnet in the installation directory on Windows.
The model is common to the chapter: connection, message, recipients; the manual gives no .NET details. .NET 2.0 or later is required.
The main trap is looking for details in the manual. They are not there: everything known about the binding is in its own description folder.
What the Hub does. Not used: the Hub submits messages to the node over SMTP.
Recommended values
What is known:
| What | Where |
|---|---|
| description | the api\dotnet folder in the installation directory |
| version | .NET 2.0 and later |
| permissions on Windows | SYSTEM or the Administrators group |
The description location, version and permissions come from the manual (§ 7.6, § 7.1). The table is ours.
Example configuration
# the binding description folder on Windows dir C:\pmta\api\dotnet
C:\pmta is the directory from the manual’s examples; with a different installation the path differs.
yellow — — directive names, blue — blocks. They are highlighted the same way in the text of the card.
Compatibility
PowerMTA 6.0
described in the manual of this version · platform: any
The vendor does not state the first version for every directive — there is no note here. The name also appears in the 5.0 edition of the manual.

How to check on the node
Check that the binding is present in the installation:
dir C:\pmta\api\dotnet
The description folder is in place — the .NET binding is installed.
