Hi<br />
You can use &quot;blat&quot; as well to create a small .bat<br />
This .bat will be started via a scheduled task, for example.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.blat.net/" rel="ugc">http://www.blat.net/</a><br />
You have to configure blat the first time, read the FAQ, &quot;CL - Why should I run Blat -install...?&quot;<br />
<br />
The .bat might be something like:<br />
<br />
hostname &gt;&nbsp;c:\body.txt<br />
c:\blat\blat.exe body.txt -to some@one.com &nbsp;-from noreply@blah.com -subject &quot;host rebooted&quot; -attach c:\any_file_if_needed.txt<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

I want to send an email message (e.g. &quot;Station 1 just rebooted&quot;) to designated recipients every time the machine reboots. &nbsp;I need it to trigger from a machine startup script (as opposed to a user startup script) as the machine will be unattended. &nbsp;The machine is a Windows XP box. &nbsp;I don't need anything fancy - the recipient list will be static and the email message will be hard-coded without use of environment variables, etc. &nbsp;The solution should just use standard SMTP (authentication would be nice). &nbsp;

Send email on Windows XP startup

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.

Email Clients

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.

Email Protocols
