The user's outlook profile will have already been created by the time this script runs so that won't need doing.

I'm sure this must be possible. I've tried using BLAT but had very poor results with it.
Most of the time it seems to just quit without doing anything, even if I set the registry by hand because it's done it wrong.

TVM if you can help!

I believe there are a ew SMTP servers out on the Internet that accept anonymous emails, so long as your 'from' domain is registered.

What version of Blat are you using?

I have been using it for a few years now and it has never failed.

You can find it here : http://www.infradig.com/infradig/index.shtml

I hope this is what you are looking for

Registry:
REGEDIT4

Code:
$RC = AddKey ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain")
$RC = AddKey ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain\Blat")
$RC = WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain\Blat", "SMTP server", "$SMTPServer", "REG_SZ")
$RC = WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain\Blat", "Sender", "helpdesk@@uk.bsmg.com", "REG_SZ")
$RC = WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain\Blat", "SMTP Port", "25", "REG_SZ")
$RC = WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Public Domain\Blat", "Try", "3", "REG_SZ")
$RC = MessageBox ("Norton AntiVirus may have a fault on this machine." + chr(10) + "Please call your local IT helpdesk and ask them to check", "Defwatch.exe missing!", 48, 300)
Shell "blat NAV_Fault.txt -t $AlertAddress -q -s NAV_fault_on_@WKSTA_during_logon_by_@USERID" ; email the helpdesk to report the find

Thanks for any advice - I'm going to look at postie and see if that's any better.

Alex

Are you getting any errors?

cj

No errors, but I'm not getting any mail either... :-(
