How do you send E-Mails using SCO?  Can you send the E-Mails to multiple customers from a report, without user input?

We use MUTT on SCO.  We export the text or report to a file which can be used either as the body of the message or an attachment.  Then we assemble the string with all the flags including to: from: cc: bcc: and such and then use a SYSTEM command to launch MUTT and send the email(s).  You have to understand MUTT and its associated flags and syntax.  We assume that any email vehicle can be used.  We just happen to use MUTT.  Whatever email program you use, learn it first.   When you can send emails the way you want from a command line, then it is easy to do the processing and system commands to get filePro to send emails.
