Sending emails with attachement

[Marc Vanzegbroeck]

Hello,

Is there a class that I can use to send emails with attachement.
I use the Tmail-class, but it only work nice with eudora and outlook-express.
Using Outlook 2003 I first get a message that possible a virus want to send a mail, and then after accepting this, the mail is placed in the out-box but I can't send it.

I want to use a function that open direct a email-client a create the mail, a thhen the user only have to press 'Send' AND it sould work with all email-programs.
I notice that the open-source PDFcreate has a possibility that can directly send emails and this work exact how I want. It open outlook 2003 without a message and prepair directly the mail with attachment. Is this also possible in FWH?

Thanks

Here is my code :
local oOutlook,oMailItem,wbody

wbody:="Cher Confrère, Chère Consœur,"+CRLF+CRLF
wbody:=wbody+"Veuillez trouver ici le rapport du médecin de garde "
*
oOutLook := TOleAuto():New("Outlook.Application")
oMailItem := oOutLook:Invoke("CreateItem", 0)
oMailitem:to:=trim(medrec->email) && si plusieur separe ;
oMailitem:CC:="ph.jacquet@skynet.be;jclip@skynet.be"
oMailItem:Set("Subject","Appel à la maison de garde de votre patient(e) "
oMailItem:Set("Body",wbody)
*
oMailItem:Attachments:Add("c:\test.doc")
oMailItem:display(.T.)

Ph Jacquet .

The refusal to send the mail without a user OK is a security measure. However, you can turn this off in the settings somewhere. The same warning will appear in Outlook Express unless it is turned off.

Why can't it be sent? Are you getting an error? What is the attachment? Have you tried a simple text message attachment?

You can use MAPI (as you are doing) to send mail to any MAPI compliant email client. However, if the email client software is not MAPI compilant, then you cannot send to it.

There are a lot of message threads about this topic in the forum. Try searching for "email."

Marc,

As far as you question about Outlook 2003 is concerned (a message that possible a virus want to send a mail) can be solved by installing a small utility which you can find at http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/security/.

Good luck
