SendEmail was designed to be a lightweight, completly command line based, SMTP email agent. If you have the need to send email from the command line, this tool is perfect.
It was designed to be used in bash scripts, Perl programs, and web sites, but it is also quite useful in many other contexts.
SendEmail is written in Perl and is unique in that it requires NO SPECIAL MODULES. It has an intuitive and flexible set of command-line options, making it very easy to learn and use.
Simply download, extract, and run "sendEmail" from a command prompt, it will give a usage summary. It is written in Perl, so no compilation needed. On a unix system if your perl binary is not installed at /usr/bin/perl you may need to edit the first line of the script. If you're running a Microsoft OS you may need to put a .pl extension on sendEmail so Windows will know to associate it with perl.
