Installing sendemails PRO
  1. Create a directory for sendemails PRO (eg. sendemails)

  2. Unpack the source file that you downloaded.  For Windows, you can unzip using WinZip and for Linux and other Unix flavours, you can simply use GNU tar or gunzip then untar.

  3. Test if the executable file works by running the following:

    • ./sendemails -h (Linux and other Unix flavours)
    • .\sendemails (Windows)

Configuration of sendemails

  1. It's possible to set every feature of sendemails via command line. We have also added a configuration file for features usally don't change. The configuration file is sendemails.cfg.  This file must reside in the same directory as the sendemails file, since it searches for this file at runtime.  You can create your own sendemails.cfg file.  Inside this file, you can change the values for all the sendemails variables + user and password.

  2. To change any of these values, you just need to edit sendemails.cfg.  You can also create a new .cfg file and tell sendemails to read it at runtime, using the -configure yourfile.cfg option.  In this section, we will discuss the most widely used variables, the one you are most likely to use with sendemails.

Setting user and password you can use SMTP with authentication.

Multiuser Features

sendemails is powerful enough for System Administrators to install globally and provide a default .cfg file for their users/organization.  This can be easily done by:

  • setenv SENDEMAILSCFG /path/to/default.cfg (This can be added to .bashrc, .cshrc etc  for example)

An user can still overwrite the default values by using another setenv or by defining in his own login files if he has a default .cfg file of his/her own.  An user can still have a working directory with a sendemails.cfg and, if it exists, have it loaded.  That allows him/her (without command line options) to setup fully functional working directories.  Users may also use the -configure option to overwrite any defaults.
