That''''s an excellent way to approach this very diverse topic.
Need more info first.
What OS are you running?
I''''m going to assume Windows XP.
It requires MAPI.
You will need to have Outlook,not just Outlook Express.Then you can use MAPISEND.exe
The switches are as follows:
Syntax
MAPISEND -u "profile" -p password
-r recipient -s "subject" -m text message
MAPISEND -u "profile" -p password
-r recipient -s "subject" -t text_file
options
-i interactive login (prompts for profile and password)
-c cc: list
-f File Attachment - path and file name(s)
-v generates verbose output (an 8 line summary of the message)
"profile" is the profile name (user mailbox) of sender
"subject" is the subject line
"recipient" is one or more recipient(s)
If more than one recipient - separate with '''';'''' ,these must be clearly written addresses.
If this isn''''t what you had in mind,you can use Telnet.
