autoresponder to send MIME attached file?
I am sure someone has cooked this up already. I run a Debian
system and want to be able to cook up a program that will send a
file to someone as a MIME attachment picking up the "reply-to"
address from the incoming mail.
I have done something similar in Perl, invoking sendmail, to send
simple messages to people who send "subscribe" messages and
the like to old list addressess on my server. What I want is to be
able, fairly easily, to put a new alias in my sendmail aliases so that
a particular file (probably a Word file I'm afraid) will be sent to
someone automatically. It would be grand if the same program
could be used each time with two arguments, one a file for the text
message (and subject line) and the other the filename for various
different files so all I had to do each time I wanted to send a new
file was to add the appropriate line to my aliases file.
Has anyone already rolled something like this that I could
legitimately use?
TIA,
Chris
