> I can use shellexecute together with "Mailto:" to create an email, but the email created then shows, waiting to be sent. How can I send it automatically using this method. I can't use Outlook automation as we don't use Outlook. I want to use email to auto-notify users of certain conditions e.g. Low Stock Warnings
