command line email utility - USEFILE parameter
-USEFILE (or -UF) parameter substitutes variables provided in command line with contents of the specified text file. Instead of typing long message body, or typing large list of recipients, or retyping email signature, after corresponding switches in command line, use -USEFILE parameter. This parameter can be used with any other parameter.
Example: sending email message using -USEFILE parameter.
C:\>febootimail -FROM doe@sender.com -TO -USEFILE c:\files\to.txt -BODY -UF c:\files\body.txt -BODY -UF c:\files\signature.txtPossible content of c:\files\to.txt file, which is used to specify recipients:
