Hey Arran4, nope, no send mail client in the default install of Win.
I usually use something I grabbed from TPJ <Net::SMTP code> use Net::SMTP; my($mh, $MailTo, $Subject, $MessageBody); #don't forget to set each of the above! sub sendMail { my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new("$mh"); $smtp->mail($MailTo); # envelope bits $smtp->to($MailTo); # envelope bits $smtp->data(); # Now for the message itself $smtp->datasend("From: $MailTo\n"); $smtp->datasend("To: $MailTo\n"); $smtp->datasend("$Subject\n\n"); $smtp->datasend("$MessageBody"); $smtp->dataend(); # end the message $smtp->quit; } </Net::SMTP code> My MUA believes you used Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 to write the following on Tuesday, May 21, 2002 at 2:57:43 AM.
