Blat can be downloaded from blat.net, it is very wasy to use. You don’t even have to install it, although the install option does exist.

Here are the steps I tool to get Blat working on my Windows 2003 server.

Download Blat from blat.net and extract the files to any folder. In my case I put it in c:\tools\blat262. There are two subdirectories docs and full. Full is where the executable and dll are.

Below is the syntax to email a file from the command line.
c:\tools\blat262\full\blat c:\file\attchment.txt -to recipient@technology.com -f sender@email.com -s “How to send email using blat” -server smtp.server.com

Save the above command in a batch file and you can schedule it to run whenever. The content of the file attachment.txt is embedded in the body of the email, not an attchment.

For those who are command line challanged, there is a GUI (graphical) version of Robocopy. Please see my article for the GUI version of Robocopy here, http://www.gamescheat.ca/2009/09/robocopy-gui-makes-copying-files-across-the-network-easy-with-the-click-of-the-mouse/

Below is an excerpt from Wikipedia:

Features
Robocopy is notable for capabilities above and beyond the built-in Windows copy and xcopy commands, including the following:

Ability to tolerate network outages and resume copying where it previously left off (incomplete files are noted with a date stamp corresponding to 1980-01-01 and contain a recovery record so Robocopy knows from where to continue).
Ability to correctly copy attributes, owner information, alternate data streams, auditing information, and timestamps by default, without the need for numerous often forgotten command line switches.
Ability to correctly copy NTFS ACLs, (when /COPYALL provided), and to assert the Windows NT "backup right" (/B) so an administrator may copy an entire directory, including files denied readability to the administrator.
Persistence by default, with a programmable number of automatic retries if a file cannot be opened.
A "mirror" mode, which keeps trees in sync by optionally deleting files out of the destination that are no longer present in the source.
Ability to copy large numbers of files that would otherwise crash the built-in XCOPY utility.
A progress indicator on the command line that updates continuously.
Notably, Robocopy cannot copy open files that are in use by other users or applications. The so-called Backup mode is an administrative privilege that allows Robocopy to override permissions settings (specifically, NTFS ACLs) for the purpose of making backups. The Windows Volume Shadow Copy service is the only Windows subsystem that can copy open files while they are in use. Robocopy does not implement accessing the Volume Shadow Copy service in any way, inhibiting its usefulness as a backup utility for volumes that may be in use. However, one can use separate utilities such as VSHADOW or DISKSHADOW (included with Windows Server 2008) to create a shadow copy of a given volume with which to backup using Robocopy.

On the other hand, by design, the original Robocopy version is not able to replicate security attributes of files which have had their security permissions changed after an initial mirroring. [1] This behavior was fixed on Robocopy versions included in Windows 2008 and Windows Vista. The downside of this approach is that it means Robocopy does not behave consistently between different platforms. [2]

[edit] GUI front-end
Although Robocopy itself is a command-line tool, Microsoft Technet has also provided a GUI front-end, the GUI requires the .NET Framework 2.0. It has been developed by Derk Benisch, a systems engineer with the MSN Search group at Microsoft.[3] Robocopy GUI also includes version XP026 of Robocopy (Vista version). When downloaded from the TechNet link below, the version reported is “Microsoft Robocopy GUI 3.1.2.” When this version of RoboCopy is run, it then reports on its header:

Create a folder under the modules directory. Call it whatever you like, but take care to replace blanks with underscores in the name.

Using a decent text editor (see Chapter 11), create a text file called index.php in that newly created directory.

Copy the following code in index.php:

<?php
/********************************/
/* PHP-NUKE: Web Portal System */
/* =================  */
/*  */
/* PHP-Nuke-HOWTO module for <application>PHP-Nuke</application> */
/*  */
/* Copyright (c) 2003 index.php  */
/* by Chris   */
/* www. karakas-online. */
/* */
/* See licence.html for the Licence of the other files */
/* distributed together with this index.php file.  */
/*  */
/* This program is free software. You can redistribute it and/or modify */
/* it under the terms of the General Public License as published by */
/* the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License.  */
/***********************************/
if (!eregi(“modules.php”, $PHP_SELF)) {
  die (“You can’t access this file directly…”);
}
$index = 0;   // 0 : do not show right blocks – 1:show right blocks
require_once(“mainfile.php”);
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));
include(“header.php”);
OpenTable();
include(“path/to/the/html/file”); // <– CHANGE THIS!
CloseTable();
include(“footer.php”);
?>

Change the licence to reflect your decisions. Of course, I urge you to use the GNU General Public License whenever possible, to help the cause of free software – PHP-Nuke is itself set under the GPL, after all, so why would you want a different licence for your module?.

Then just enter the right path to the HTML file you want to include, replacing the “path/to/the/html/file” string. This can be either a full filesystem path, or a relative one – relative to the PHP-Nuke root directory, which is always the same directory where config.php is located. But it may also very well be a URL to a HTML file of another site. Examples:

include(“/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/myfile.html”); // absolute filesystem path
include(“modules/PHP-Nuke_HOWTO/cookies.html”); // relative filesstem path
include(“http://www.wiivil.com/ filexx.html”); // full URL

Finally, activate the module from the modules administration (see Section 9.3).

 Javascript in modules
  There is nothing that prevents you from including a file that contains Javascript code in a module. As long as the Javascript functions defined in the included file are not also present in the includes/javascript.php file (see Section 21.9.1), and the HTML page created with the Javascript does not break the table layout of your theme, there should be no problem. In this way you could create a PHP-Nuke Guestbook module, for example, if you already had the Javascript code for a guestbook (see Javascript in themes).
 

If you want to include two files in the module, so that they appear side-by-side, rather than one after the other, you can use the usual HTML table trick to show the files in two separate cells of the same table row (see Using “include” for HTML pages):

OpenTable();
echo “<table><tr><td>”;
include (“page.html”);
echo “</td><td>”;
include (“page2.html”);
echo “</td></tr></table”;
CloseTable();

An alternative way to include a HTML file in the module, is to terminate PHP interpretation of the file with a closing ?>, include the HTML code verbatim and then reopen the PHP context with a new <?php line:

<?php
if (!eregi(“modules.php”, $PHP_SELF)) {
die (“You can’t access this file directly…”);
}
$index = 0;   // 0 : do not show right blocks – 1:show right blocks
require_once(“mainfile.php”);
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));
include(“header.php”);
OpenTable();
?>
PUT YOUR HTML CODE HERE, WHATEVER COMES BETWEEN THE <html> AND </html>
TAGS OF YOUR HTML FILE
<?php
CloseTable();
include(“footer.php”);
?>

Note that we have inserted a closing ?> after the call to OpenTable() and an opening <?php before the call to CloseTable(). Whatever comes in between, should be plain HTML code, not PHP. This method is suitable for small HTML texts, for larger texts the include method is recommended.
