&gt; [snip my request for suggestions]
&gt; &gt; As for me, the most straightforward way of sending mail is to use
&gt; &gt; sendmail. If you're operating in UNIX, that's peanuts, especially perl -
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; open( SENDMAIL,"|`which sendmail`" );
&gt; &gt; print SENDMAIL ... # Don't forget your headers, as in RFC822
&gt; &gt; close SENDMAIL; # This commits the delivery, otherwise it will wait
&gt; &gt; until your process terminates, which is probably not what you want :-)
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Syntax is approximate, you WANT to check it :-)
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; In other cases/operating systems, it would be probably better to talk to
&gt; &gt; sendmail too - you just telnet (open socket connection) to the nearby
&gt; &gt; UNIX' port 25 and go ahead as RFC822 says.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Draft Java implementation is available on request.

&gt; &gt; UNIX _is_ user friendly, he's just very picky about who his friends are
&gt; 
&gt; I went ahead and tried what KaVir suggested, and it worked pretty smoothly. the 
&gt; C system( "sendmail -s &lt;subject&gt;
&gt; &lt;address&gt; &lt;mail.file" ); worked, however, some lag is apparent since system waits 
&gt; for completion.  I'll just have to
&gt; research fork and do it that way.
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks everyone for the help!

I'm catching up on xmas mail, so sorry if someone has mentioned this already...
try a &amp; on the end of the command within system.  I use a similar thing to 
delete player-recognition files -  system("rm -f -r ../known/*/Kavir &amp;"); or
whatever.  I really need to find some effective way to pack info about everyone
you know into a single file, yet have a decent way of removing all knowledge of
you from everyone elses file when you die...

KaVir.
