Using notepad, create a file containing the following - replacing the information within quote marks with your own, without the quote marks:
Below is an example of email.ini using a server on port 25 without authentication and with logging enabled:
Once email.ini is done, you may use email.exe to send and email that is contained in a file. The file must follow a certain format, that provides to email.exe the recipient and sender. Below is what a typical file looks like:
To send this email, save the above text in a file named "hourly.txt" (for instance) and you may open a command prompt window, change the direcory to the one containing the file and enter the command line : email hourly.txt
You may also send this email through a EXT function in RTES32. Here is an example of how you do that:
Create two consecutive variables named EMAIL and HOURLY
Define a function EXT EMAIL=HOURLY (this is like defining a RULE, but with EXT instead of RULE)
Enter in the Message area of HOURLY : email hourly.txt When you set HOURLY to 1, EMAIL changes to 1 as well and the EXT associated with it execute the text that is 1 line down as an EXTernal command line (just as if you entered it at the command prompt).
See the example here to create hourly.txt dynamically.
