Java has a standard extension for dealing with email, called JavaMail. Once you install it, you can use the following Mathematica program to send mail. The program has some hardcoded strings appropriate for me; obviously users would have to change these. This program is essentially a line-for-line transalation of a JavaMail sample program into J/Link's Mathematica syntax, so although it looks complicated, it is pretty straightforward to write. This solution is much more complex than Dan's, but it will work unmodified on all platforms that Mathematica runs on. The real power of J/Link is that with another short program you can _read_ email into Mathematica. You can actually interact with a running Mathematica program remotely, via email. EMail[addr_, subject_, content_] := JavaBlock[ Module[{props, session, msg, from, to}, InstallJava[]; props = JavaNew["java.util.Properties"]; props at put[MakeJavaObject["mail.smtp.host"], MakeJavaObject["smtp.enteract.com"]]; props at put[MakeJavaObject["mail.user"], MakeJavaObject["tgayley"]]; LoadClass["javax.mail.Session"]; session = Session`getDefaultInstance[props, Null]; msg = JavaNew["javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage", session]; from = JavaNew["javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress", "tgayley at wolfram.com"]; to = JavaNew["javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress", addr]; LoadClass["javax.mail.Message$RecipientType"]; msg at setRecipients[Message$RecipientType`TO, {to}]; msg at setSubject[subject]; msg at setContent[MakeJavaObject[content], "text/plain"]; msg at setFrom[from]; LoadClass["javax.mail.Transport"]; Transport`send[msg] ] ] --Todd Todd Gayley Wolfram Research
