EMAIL FROM THE DESKTOP USING EUDORA ADDRESS BOOK LISTS
[ul]
Summary: lets you edit a message and then send it to a list of
people in an Eudora Address Book. Eudora Automation makes it very easy.
[/ul] [tt]
Make a batch file to edit Message.Txt and then send it to
everyone in the
EuList address book item in Eudora. You will send to some other list in the address book, EUList we just used for testing.
Send2Lst.Bat
[ul]
Code:
@echo off
start /w notepad message.txt
echo To:
EUList
Code:
>header
echo. >>header
copy header + message.txt message.msg
e:\wpr\eudora\eudora.exe
Make a link to the folder in which you placed file
Send2Lst.bat . Be sure to set the startup or working directory to that folder otherwise file message.txt and the header will be lost.
[ol][li]change
EuList to the name of your list in the Eudora address
book, the first ECHO.
[li]Change
e:\wpr\eudora\eudora.exe to the drive and path for where your
Eudora is kept.
