Conditional operation on response from email script.

Message

jmumby · #1 Post by **jmumby** » 09 Jan 2010 16:26

Im using http://freshmeat.net/projects/sendemail/ in a batch file. At the end of sending an email it replys with a message of succses or failure. For example

Code: Select all

Jan 10 00:46:54 villa sendemail[456]: Email was sent successfully!

Is it possible to capture this message into a variable for processing?

The conditional part I can probably work out, I don't know how to get the reply stream into a variable.

Thx

The code I use is ...

Code: Select all

sendemail -t address@server.com -u Scanned document %date% %time% -s smtp.server.com -xu username -xp password -m This is an OCR text document -f address@server.com -a %~n1_%XTime%.txt > msg

I figured I could just put a > msg at the end of it and store it that way.
