 |
|
AHK works with mailto links. You can do
| Code: | | run, mailto:somebody@somemail.com?subject=Mail subject&body=Dear Sir, |
Any idea about how to insert line-breaks in "body"?
Can the body-text be for example
Dear Sir,
I saw in your webpage that...
bla bla...

I found it:
| Code: | | run, mailto:somebody@somemail.com?subject=Mail subject&body=Dear Sir`,`%0Asecond line... |
"`%0A" makes a line break.

This topic has already helped me out a lot, but does anyone know how to get a % sign in the body to work?
| Code: | | run, mailto:somebody@somemail.com?subject=Mail subject&body=This does not work 100% at all! |
Results in:
This does not work 100?0at all!
I know this is more of a mailto question and not really related to AHK, but if you know how to get mailto do display that % I'd love to know!

Is there anyway to add an attachment to the email using this method? I am trying to write a script that will send an attachment. I tried the following code, but it bombs when it gets to where I enter the name of the file I want to send. The email client is outlook. Thanks for any help.
| Code: | run, mailto:someuser@somehost.com
sleep, 1000
ifwinnotactive, Untitled Message,,winactivate, Untitled Message,
send,Problems with server{ENTER}
send ,{ALTDOWN}il
send, c:\goodcount.txt
send,{ALTDOWN}s |

you may have to have another winwait for the file attachment dialog before sending the file name. Alternately, instead of attaching the file, you could read the contents of the file onto the clipboard, then paste into the email.
You are also only using Alt down, and not releasing the key (also note {alt down} vs {altdown}
a few versions to try
| Code: |
run, mailto:someuser@somehost.com
sleep, 1000
ifwinnotactive, Untitled Message,,winactivate, Untitled Message,
send,Problems with server{ENTER}
send ,{ALT DOWN}il{alt up}
send, c:\goodcount.txt{enter}
send,{ALT DOWN}s{alt up}
|
| Code: |
run, mailto:someuser@somehost.com
sleep, 1000
ifwinnotactive, Untitled Message,,winactivate, Untitled Message,
send,Problems with server{ENTER}
send ,!il
send, c:\goodcount.txt{enter}
send,!s
|
| Code: |
run, mailto:someuser@somehost.com
sleep, 1000
ifwinnotactive, Untitled Message,,winactivate, Untitled Message,
send,Problems with server{ENTER}
FileRead, clipboard, c:\goodcount.txt
sleep, 100
send, ^v{enter}
send,!s

This isn't working in Outlook, but I think it should:
| Code: | Mailto=Me@test.com
Subject=Testing Attachment
Body=Hi, does it work
File="C:\WebCenterStatus2.txt"
run, mailto:%mailto%?subject=%subject%&body=%body%&attachment=%file% |
I'll look at it more on Monday... It's the WEEKEND!!

All of the documentation that I'm finding online points to this syntax being correct, but Outlook isn't attaching my file.
Can anyone try the following two commands in a CMD window and let me know if they work? (C:\test.txt should exist)
rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler mailto:test@test.com&attachment="C:\test.txt"
rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler mailto:test@test.com&attachment="C:\\test.txt"

None of them works.
This works: rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler mailto:test@test.com?body=bla
Probably something is wrong with the '&' - but i have no idea...
