Might it be easier to access a URL rather than send an email ?
Have a server somewhere which can gather the data included and email it
along to wherever it needs to go ?
(Or, to put it another way, I don't know how to directly answer your
question :-)

This is used in a corporate environment, so the actual user of the Mac
computer will not likely even know it is running. It is designed to
collect certain data and send it to management.
I have not yet found a reliable way for the program to send an email
to admin. This has to be done invisibly, so revmail is not an option.
I tried both Shao Shen's libSMTP and Sarah's SMTPlibrary, but haven't
had much success configuring the SMTP server information so that it
will reliably send an email. I can get these to work with some SMTP
server data (like GoDaddy), but often times, with a given clients mail
server, neither of these programs will send an email. They just
generate errors (like badconnect) as soon as SEND is pressed... even
though I know the SMTP server data is correct.
I thought about using the built-in OSX "sendemail" command from a
Shell script, but I have read that that command will often not work on
a given Mac unless the Mac has been set up to allow it to work. Not
sure what is involved to make this command work.
There must be some reliable way to (invisibly) send an email from a LC
program running under OS X. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Richard Miller
