Hi,
I'm running windowsnt4.0 platform....
I would like to start running a nightly job on a w/98 computer. When this job completes it creates a text file that I would like to have e-mailed to a particular user automatically...... I would like all this to be done right after the job completes. I use outlook express ver 5....
Any help would be appreciated...

Well, you could schedule a BAT file to run that would take the text files and e-mails them using a DOS command line e-mail program.
NetMAIL DOS is the only command-line SMTP program that I know of, but I don't think it can handle attachments. there should be others out there that will.
