    OK ... now how do we get it to send text from a file, instead of a fixed string?

    Or you can use the cmd-let #$cred = get-credential send-mailMessage -to "" -subject "test" -from "" -body "" -SmtpServer "" #-credential $cred

    how would you add multiple to addresses from a text file? Like this $msg.To.Add(Get-Content <path to text> And would the text file need to be comma or semicolon separated, or have addresses on their own lines?

    Do you have to have Outlook installed to send an email or will it just use the server info?  I'm trying to send the email from a server.  I want the scripts to run before I get in and boot up, so I set them up on the server.  They will report to a file but I'd like them emailed to a group.  The email doesn't go out  but it works form my PC.  I think it must have Outlook installed or use OWA.  Am I correct?
