Testing Email server Exchange Server 2010 manually - sending a email with attachment
I have a process that will create a PDF attachment and then send the attachment via automated program. Recently the program has a problem finding the attachment.
How can i test sending a emali with a attachment?
I like to test this process by creating a test that will first test our email server.
I have tried the telnet process and i am not getting a postive when I run the EHLO command.
(Start communication by typing the following command:
EHLO test.com
If the command is successful, you receive the following response:
250 OK)
This does not happen, all I get is:

EHLO BIOTONE.COM

SHOULD IT RETURN 250 OK?

Will, sending attachment via my Outlook clients works fine. So I not sure using Powershell would test the process the same as it is being run currently.
I like to test my proecess run from a network resouce, not directly on the mail server?
Any ideas?

I think we are on differnt pages.
My process that i have currently will create a PDF file, then the PDF file is attached to a email using a customer program(proprietory-I'm trying to get the vendor to support their development, but they want me to upgrade...Instead of supporting a older version)
So I wanted to create a homegrown solution to test the same process.
Invoice is genereated, then the invoice is converted to a PDF
