Re: st: how to send an email via Stata Command

[Jeph Herrin <stata@spandrel.net>]

Since you refer to D:\temp.txt, I assume you are using some version of 
Windows. In that case (ie, if you are not using some version of *nix) 
you'll need to either:

 a) Download and install a command line mail send utility; I use
    one called -bmail- which works pretty well. You will however need
    an SMTP server, which I think Outlook Express should require.

 b) Script it in PowerShell, which is a Microsoft command line
    environment. However, it will require much more effort, and I
    do not recommend it.

hth,
Jeph
