Email In and Out of LabVIEW

I am interested in sending and receiving email programatically from LabVIEW.
I have yet to find something that does everything well. Besides the
following
list, what have people used for email with LabVIEW.

Thanks.

I believe that the most popular may be Outlook
using ActiveX ?

I am afraid that my main platform is UNIX do I have little experience
with ActiveX and Outlook express.

I would suggest you explore the documents and examples
on using ActiveX and then try some experiments.
Basically you drop an ActiveX container on the FronT Panel
and then b
rowse to find the correct component.

You may want to search the NI knowledge base and
(for Outlook Express , ActiceX ) check out Microsoft's web site.

Hi there,
I created an example using ActiveX in LabVIEW and Microsoft Outlook8 (not
express), in which you can input email, subject, body, and attachment.
It's not password protected so you can easily modify it for your needs.
By the way, I'm trying to create in this site a LabVIEW resource for everyone,
so all of you are invited to help me.
Thanks

PS: you will find it under "Resources" in http://www.easymacro.com
