Hi Bill,
I'm running XP Home, and I don't have that directory. Is it an XP Pro
thing, or do I just need to create the directory? Is there any software
I need to run? I would like to be able to send email from Jbase, and if
this is a Windows function, it shouldn't matter where the file comes
from, right? Of course, I could be all wet here.
Thanks,
Charlie Noah

This is extremely simple in Windows. Add a basic email header to the
statement you wish to send, e.g...
x-sender: myser...@mydomain.com
x-receiver: targetn...@targetdomain.com
From: billingd...@mydomain.com
To: targetn...@targetdomain.com

...then copy the item to the "C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Pickup" folder.
Windows SMTP service will automatically send it out.
As Jeff says, however, you'll have to configure the SMTP server to
properly "forward" to an authorized email server. If you "need"
attachments, which most billings don't, then Jeff's method, although
not as simple, will work fine. Also, if you want "html" you'll have
to build a program to do that. Normally I just create an "html"
template then, at runtime, substitute data into this template and
write it to the aforementioned SMTP folder.
HTH,
Bill

We're started a project where a client wants to email statements to

customers. Has anyone done this with success, and if so, can you
point me
in a direction?
