WindMail is a command line mailer for Windows NT and Windows95.  Its most
obvious functions are those you would use sendmail for in a Unix
environment.  It supports distribution lists, binary and text file
attachments, MIME encoding, message priority, return receipts, and much
more.  It only takes 2 lines of code to utilize it from any CGI script.
Sample source is included in the documentation.

We've developed some really neat applications using it, and users are saying
they like it, so its probably worth the download (22k).

Current Security & Administrative uses:
Mail security, access, and error logs to the Administrator or offsite in a
batch process.
Mail timed ping and traceroute information to whoever needs it.  
Mail administrator precisely when someone is trying to break into an HTTP
server (with agentURL).

A host of other people are developing Web to Email gateways and other
miscellaneous things.
