Should anyone else have the same issue you need:

bmail:
http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions/cmdlinemail/cmdlinemail.htm

Mpack which is linked on the bmail page.

And if its text files you are sending but want to retain the files as files rather than dumped into the contents of a mail you need to use a command line compression tool (like this one: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=118012)

Easy when you know how! ]]> https://www.binaryfortress.com/ShellSend/Discussions/View/shellsend-and-attachments/?ID=801792d0-ae9a-473e-9d72-dd5867d1c81d Tue, 29 Jul 2008 13:27:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.binaryfortress.com/ShellSend/Discussions/View/shellsend-and-attachments/?ID=801792d0-ae9a-473e-9d72-dd5867d1c81d ShellSend Hi!

First off - just like to say thanks. A couple of times your software has come in extremely useful (dispaly fusion has throughly sorted out my odd dual screen setup at home!).

However I'm at work now so slightly more mundane things. I'm about to use Shellsend to autoforward files to a third party. however having just had a quick read thorugh the documentation it appears to send the contents of the file. Not that actual file itself? Is that correct?

Is there any way of sending say "*.fil" from a folder as attachments?

The big problem for me is that the system I'm working with generates a different file name each time so a wildcard of some kind is going to be essential.

Thanks!
