in reply to Domino Servers and Perl

Dear nisha,

Yes, perl is an opportune language for spamming millions of people. It can do that, as well as many other things. Don't bother going to cpan first. Don't bother attempting your own problem, or starting your own search. Asking open-ended questions is good, and the less you know the more open-ended your question will be!

PS, Don't give away any details.

    Hey EvenCarroll, one of the reasons to have a Domino server is to have it exist in your enterprise and do automated workflow for you. This nearly always involves sending emails around. Having your Domino server send automated emails is one of the simplest and most common requests an admin or developer can get.

    Not everything is spam, yo.

    Sorry for shooting at the dark and raising a real open ended question. Well i have this now...i am automating sending e-mails to a notes client on windows using "win32::ole" module...if i were to do the same on a AIX or a Solaris platform, what module would i have to use to launch the notes client. Hopefully this question was not an open ended one, coz i am really looking for some help in this matter.

      If you don't bother, you don't learn
