Oh! This is driving me batty! I have tried every combination to get
this to send an email to Thunderbird
This command assembles the letter, but leaves out the carriage returns
"C:/Saint Cuthbert/Programming/BGM Programs/mailto/makemail.exe"
&(recipient) "&(subject)" &(body)
The other commands I have tried won't include the body.
The ini.get lines should end up like this:
local Sheets = 199
etc.
I tried to create the mailto function using the standard configuration
and pp's escape characters made it impossible to send a body for an email.
So I tried it in C, and it works, except I can't get pp to send any
carriage returns.
But my little C app (also called makemail.exe) will work via a batch file.
At the bottom of the function is the command I tried for that app.
It's syntax is this: makemail [email protected] "subject in quotations" And
whatever is left on the command line is the body.
