Mailing an short info

[Timo]

Hello together,

I want to check with my program if a directory is empty or not. If a file is in this directory I want to send a short email.

Is this possible with AutoIt? Has someone an idea how to program this?

I really don't know how to start.

Thanks,

Timo

This should get you started

$size = DirGetSize("C:\Images", 1)
IsArray ($size)

If $size[0] = 0 Then 
   MsgBox(4096,"", "Directory empty")
Else 
   MsgBox(4096,"", "Directory not empty")
Endif

Hi Nova,

ok. This works, but how to send a info via email that the directory is not empty?

Do you have any ideas?

Bye,

These are a few different ways to send mail:

- UDF calling an external SMTP mailer, in this case blat.exe, look here

- UDF calling Larry's TCP functions in AU3Xtra.dll, look here. You can download Larry's AU3Xtra.dll http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/Larry/au3xtra.dll

- UDF to send mail via your browser, look here

The first 2 methods require access to an SMTP server.

Hello pacman,

great. Thank you for your posting. And by the way, you are very very fast.

I will now study which one is the best for me.

Thanks a lot,

Timo
