HI All.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">
Well finally got access back to my server, thanks to ADSL being down for
11hrs !! here in CHCH.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">
Anyway, what I want to do, is every now and then, or pretty much wne
required, have the client click on a menu item and it will gather up some
files and put them into a zip file for us, and send them to us.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">
My inital thought was to use the ShellExecute to do a Mailto, and then it
would add the attachement to the email. I thought this would get round
firewall issues, and any problems like here at work where we have no access
to port 25 to send mail, and then the client would just press the send
button.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">
BUT, Outlook does not like the
&attach="myfile.x" bit you tag onto the mailto
command.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white">
Want otehr options do I have? It has to work regardless of
wether or not they are behind a firewall etc.</DIV>
