Hi Guys,

Can I know how to send SMTP message from Windows 2000
SERVER without installing SMTP service. I don't want to
install CDO service and outlook.
Is there any easy method to send SMTp messages please. ?

Thanks for your help in advance.

You could telnet to the smtp port of your mail server typically tcp port 25
and issue SMTP commands. You could script it with any one of several
scripting languages.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks a lot for your tips. I really appreciate you.
If you have small scripting example to this can you please
let me know. I really appreciate that.

Million Thanks to you,

You could use any of the public domain mail tools, e.g.
mailto.exe, sendmail.exe, blat. They all let you send
a message from a command prompt to some SMTP
server.
