e-mail help

[ccrespo]

How would i program robotask to e-mail different people when files are added for different folders, but then delete those files when being sent.  But the files being moved into the folder are posted with a date time... for example INB120505.txt, is being moved into a "send" folder where it whould be e-mailed to someone then automatically be deleted...
The help that is provided online gives no insight into anything like this...and doesnt explain anything well..

See example below. This task will be launched every 60 sec and will send each *.txt file in folder "c:\source\to oleg" to me in separate messages. After sending the file will be removed.
If you have a few recipients you should have a few folders (one folder for each recipient)

Save text of the task into file and use menu Task | Import to import into RoboTask. Do not forget to enable this task after importing.

[ccrespo]

how do you learn to program like that, are there any additional resource materials i can invest in?

[ccrespo]

also whats the seperator for multiple e-mails? a semicolon ;?

[Oleg]

You can use multiple emails like this:
user1@domain.com; user2@domain.com
or
"John Smith"<john@yahoo.com>; "Melissa Wetton"<mw@aol.com>

[ccrespo]

Also what about if the file is not a .txt file, if its a pdf or other type of file...?

[Oleg]

You asked about text files.
Any other files you can mail as attachments

[ccrespo]

Also, I am having problems with sending multiple attachments......sorry for being such a pain, but i run the IT department of a logistics corporation and im just determining if robotask is worth investing in.

[Oleg]

What a problem? Describe in more detail, please.
Or, better, send me your task. Probably you do something wrong.

When executing, if there are multiple files in the folder, only one file is sent as an attachment.  I need it so that all of the files are included the e-mail
