Looking for DOS command-line e-mail client
Have you tried pegasus mail?
Is it command line?
So far I've searched far and wide and pursued half a dozen well-meaning
but erroneous suggestions for various packages and I just don't think such
an application exists.
Sure it does,
PC pine works fine,
Even known to work with Lan Manager with the
right protocol stack shims...
Are earlier versions smaller than 1MB? That's how big the current version
is. PINE has always been bloated, so I wouldn't expect an older version
to a) have the functionality I seek and b) be able to fit in memory with
the net drivers loaded and while another program is running (i.e. PINE is
shelled out to).
Sure its smaller than 1M since it will fit in 640K along with whatever parts
of the LAN manager stack wont fit in high memory. As I recall its around 500K.
I used it for many a year...
I guess I didn't read all the intervening messages and it was not clear to me
what you wanted
Looks like what you are looking for is a DOS equivalent of the unix 'mail'
program. If security is not a big issue and the attached DOS file is on a
Samba server, you could just use one of the DOS REXEC clients to invoke the
unix mail program and send the file...
THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT EXIST!
