Please post the command line parameters your e-mail client supports:IMPVGO wrote:What would be a script to add Send selected file(s) to E-Mail recipient utilizing default mail client to the the Tool Bar on XYplorer?. The newly created e-mail should contain the name of the attached file(s) in the "subject" of the e-mail and in the "body" of it. I will really appreciate help in this regard.

I read also that attachment="C:\path\filename" should work for 0utl00k 2003.In order to create a preformatted and pre-addressed e-mail message,
it is necessary to build a command-line string with the following parameters:
mailto:<to email>?cc=<cc email>&bcc=<bcc
mail>&subject=<subject text>&body=<body text>
Where the following variable definitions apply:Code: Select all
Variable Field Entry -------------------------------------------------------------- <to e-mail> e-mail address to appear in the To field <cc mail> e-mail address to appear in the CC field <bcc mail> e-mail address to appear in the BCC field <subject> text to appear in the Subject field <body text> text to appear in the Body of the message
Your script looks very similar to the one i wrote here:IMPVGO wrote:Thank-you for your reply. With your help, I wrote the following script on a customizable toolbar button:
//Attach to Thunderbird
$items=chr(39).get("SelectedItemsPathNames",",").chr(39);
run """C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\Thunderbird.exe"" -compose attachment=$items,
subject=Emailing("SelectedItemsPathNames")
body=("SelectedItemsPathnames";
And when I presss the button, my explorer opens on "computer" location.

Code: Select all
//Attach to Thunderbird
$items=chr(39).get("SelectedItemsPathNames",",").chr(39);
$itemnames=get("SelectedItemsNames",", ");
run """C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\Thunderbird.exe"" -compose attachment=$items, subject=$itemnames, body=$itemnames"; Stefan is right! i forgot to quote the subject and body. so here is a version which works for me:IMPVGO wrote:Thank-you very much for your answer. When applying this script on my button on the toolbar, my e-mail client opens with the attachment I have selected, but there is no subject or body....
Also, if I select several "tif" or "pdf" files to attach to the e-mail, I get the following message:
"An error occurred while creating a message compose window. Please try again"
When I use the "send to" option in the context menu works perfect, but I will like to place that option of e-mailing in the tool-bar.
Thanks in advance for any help in this regard
Code: Select all
//Attach to Thunderbird
$items=chr(39).get("SelectedItemsPathNames",",").chr(39);
$itemnames=chr(39).get("SelectedItemsNames",", ").chr(39);

The problem is not the size, i think its the length of string that can be passed to the command line.IMPVGO wrote:Works perfect serendipity, however, when I try to attach a file that is bigger than approximately 600 kb, it fails to attach. The e-mail client is opened, but the file is not attached, and nothing appears in the subject line or the body of the e-mail. Same thing when I try to attach for example 3 files that are larger than 100 kb. As I said before, this works okay when the attachment is made from the context menu. I have no idea why this happens. In any case, thank-you very much.

run "cmd /c cd /d C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\ & thunderbird -compose $TB_Syntax";Thanks Don! Can confirm it. I checked the length of the string i am passing and above 2047 gave an error. But 2047 is for command prompt. For Run or openwith command its much lower, like close to 800. Any idea why?admin wrote:AFAIK Windows command lines must not exceed 2047 characters (XP).
And also you doesn't quote the single items themself, doesn't that matter in this case?serendipity wrote:Stefan is right! i forgot to quote the subject and body.
Hint for others reading this later:serendipity wrote:The problem is not the size, i think its the length of string that can be passed to the command line.
Eg: You can attach more items if the path is "D:\new.txt" compared to "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\new.txt"

Test, nothing substed:
C:\Temp>subst
Read the help:
C:\Temp>subst /?
Weist einem Pfad eine Laufwerkbezeichnung zu.
SUBST [Laufwerk1: [Laufwerk2:]Pfad]
SUBST Laufwerk1: /D
In XYplorer subst C:\Temp to A::
::run "cmd /c subst A: <curpath>";
The result:
C:\Temp>subst
A:\: => C:\Temp
Test
Dir A:
is now the same as:
C:\Temp>Dir
Remove the subst and free A:
C:\Temp>subst a: /d
Test, nothing substed:
C:\Temp>subst
C:\Temp>Doesn't seem like, the example in the thunderbird doesn't mention it, plus the syntax is working for me:Stefan wrote:And also you doesn't quote the single items themself, doesn't that matter in this case?serendipity wrote:Stefan is right! i forgot to quote the subject and body.
No. The docs are wrong.serendipity wrote:@Don: this page says, 8191 characters for XP and above. But I am getting errors already at 2047. Any idea why?
