Since I completely screwed up the last post, I decided to try and do
it right!

I am looking for a way to send an e-mail message directly out of a
Linux D3 program.

Nothing complex - just quick and dirty.

Rodney,

Take a look at the Linux mail command (man mail).

I use Blat - a freeware, command line e-mail processor. If you'd like some
free sample programs (Pick Basic) send me an e-mail - fawnridge at bellsouth
dot net.

BODY = "HELLO" :@AM:"LINE TWO OF EMAIL"

CMD = "!cat /tmp/foo.txt | mail "
CMD := " -s 'my email subject' "

CMD := " ; rm /tmp/foo.txt"
EXECUTE CMD CAPTURING BUCKET

NebulaMail is quick, but certainly not dirty:

NebulaMail:
- installs quickly
- runs over all D3 platforms (other MV products as required)
- is as simple as it gets to use
--- your code is 100% BASIC
--- no SMTP/MAPI knowledge or !command-line syntax required
--- one code set for Win32 and *nix - no app changes required
- supports plain text and HTML
- supports custom headers like ReplyTo and Organization
- supports multiple To/CC/BCC with proper name formatting
- supports multiple attachments
--- sets proper MIME types
--- allows recipients to see unique filenames rather than original
- returns standard errors regardless of platform or mail server
- has extended logging for diagnostics
- has thorough documentation
- and even receives POP3 e-mail !

Upcoming enhancements now in testing include support for one-line
"quickmail", embedded images, custom content-type-encoding for
international use, and both Text and HTML in the same mail body :
e-mail clients that can read HTML won't show text as an attachment,
and clients that can't read HTML see a nicely formatted text message,
not HTML code.
More enhancements are planned.

NebulaMail is sold for only US$250 and comes with free installation
assistance, free support, free upgrades, and lots of free sample code
that can be pasted into your app - and you get productive fast without
learning funky syntax that you won't remember next week for
platform-specific command-line utilities.

You can use this syntax

!mail -s eom.start emailaddress (AT) isp (DOT) com < eom.start

eom.start is a static file containing the text of the email. It can be
written out on the fly.
