Email with user authentication

I realize that there may be open source solutions for this but I would love a robust easy to use email function on completion. Essentially, I am gearing up to run some larger batched analysis routines on a remote workstation for our user group. The analysis time and queue length will vary from minutes to hours (hopefully not days yet). I would love the option to email the user on completion, failure, or email me if something really goes crazy.

 

The problem with the current simple email solution (unless authentication was really recently implemented) is that almost every SMTP server requires additional  authentication to combat spammers I suppose.

I have had a working solution based on a dotnet solution that I hacked apart and then strung backtogether. If this would be useful to the CVI dev team them message me.
