| <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. |

| <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. |
