You can do this from Perl if you wish. What follows is VBA code that does almost everything you want. You will have to convert it to Win32 Perl. (Hey, I can't do everything for you.)
What is excluded is info regarding the username and password. This info is definitely in the Outlook VBA help file. See how to do it in Outlook VBA then simply convert the code to Win32 Perl. I have done the same thing with Access VBA and it is fairly simple. Please refer to the link "Using OLE with Perl" in the ActivePerl help file. There are many examples. ---------------BEGIN OFFENSIVE M$ CODE HERE------------------------- Sub SendFile() Dim ol As Outlook.Application Dim olMail As Outlook.MailItem Set ol = New Outlook.Application Set olMail = ol.CreateItem(olMailItem) With olMail .Recipients.Add "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" .Subject = "My subject goes here." .Body = "This is a test." .Attachments.Add "E:\Documents\attachment.doc", olByValue .Send End With Set ol = Nothing Set olMail = Nothing End Sub ----------------END OFFENSIVE M$ CODE HERE-------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Hello Buddy [mailto:hello_buddy_001@;yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 9:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Wants to know about outlook with perl Hi, I am totally beginner in Perl and programming. I have no experience before. I want to know that "is it possible to do with perl script to write and send the mail for outlook without opening outlook application?". What I mean is I just enter user name and password for outlook account and give the text file of message to perl and I want perl to do it automatically. Thanks in advance for your answers.
