This isn't for the purpose of spamming a list of people. I just want it to send an email with an attachment with a certain name once per day at a specific time. The attachment will be a different file, but the file can have the same name and path if that will make things easier.
Any ideas?
Can I configure MS Outlook to send an email with an attachment once per day?
You can't do it since SP2, because you have to allow Outlook to send the email (by clicking a button in a popup) - an anti-spam "feature". But you can write a trivial little CDO routine in any language (including VBScript) to do it, and have it run every day with the task scheduler.
Reply:I don't believe you can do it with outlook but yes, you're looking at some sort of spamming software which is illegal in a lot of places. Otherwise you would probably be able to do this with a script within Linux, not a windows system.
Not sure if shell scripting in windows supports this or not, but my answer is no, you cannot do this in MS Outlook.
Reply:just b/c u say it isn't for spam doesn't make it so...
what reason do you have for this?
you will most likely need a program written for that express purpose in java, c+, or even excel, to my knowledge there isn't a config option.
Reply:Have you tried creating a batch file to do this and schedule it with either an at command or the windows scheduled tasks?
