Sending files via e-mail

[gpbarsky]

Hi.

I would like to know if there is any way to send a file, attached in a note.

Actually, I am sending notes, but without files.

Any suggestion will be wellcome.

Thanks.

You need to get your hands on an email client that supports file attachments. From the UNIX side, we've used a freeware one called 'mutt' and found it very easy to setup and use. In order to use it, you'll need to either write scripts (and use DSExecute) that call it and take appropriate parameters for filename, etc - or edit the DSSendmail templete to use the new client and add that capability. At least I assume you can do that, we wrote our own scripts.

Hope that helps,

Not sure what to do from the NT side (does 'blat' support attachments?) but 'mutt' can be found at http://www.mutt.org
