For completeness, I'm posting the entirety of my modified SendEmail() function call discussed in this thread (originally posted by carteriii). I managed to destroy a drive repartition (power-outage at exactly the wrong moment), and lost my original rewrite from this thread. So... best that I documen...

OK, now it makes more sense. Thank you. I'm now getting email successfully. However, the image tag is blank. You mention the need for Ahhh... that was the missing item, the requirement for %EI1%, %EIM%, (or presumably %EIV%). Where do those tags go? Sorry for the late response (I thought I had noti...

Also, regarding your comment on using SMTP authentication as a default, while I agree this is useful, the final implementation needs be optional. In my case--and likely the case o...

Also, two questions for the author: --You iterate through attachments, but I'm unclear as to what attachments you'...
