Description

The MAILSEND() function is used for sending mail. If successful the MAILSEND() will return .T. or .F. otherwise. The MAILERROR() function can be used to return the error message if the MAILSEND() fails.


Parameters Required Default Description
<expC1> No Your node The from name of the sender
<expC2> Yes None A semi-colon separated list of recipient names to receive the message
<expC3> Yes None A semi-colon separated list of cc recipient names to receive the message
<expC4> No None The subject of the message
<expC5> Yes None The message to be sent. This can be a character string, a variable containing a character string or a character string containing the name of a text file.
<expC6> No None A comma separated list of names of files to be sent as attachments
<expL1> No None Open VMS only. If <expL1> is .T. (true), any attachments will be sent as ASCII, not binary. If <expL1> is .F. or omitted, all attachments will be sent as binary 64 bit encoded.
