We use blat to do this all the time in our environment. I use it as well to connect to Gmail with Stunnel. Here's the params to send a file

blat -to [email protected] -server smtp.example.com -f [email protected] -subject "subject" -body "body" -attach c:\temp\file.txt

Or you can put that file in as the body

blat c:\temp\file.txt -to [email protected] -server smtp.example.com -f [email protected] -subject "subject"

PowerShell comes with a built in command for it  So running directly from a  bat file   powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -Command Send-MailMessage       -SmtpServer server address name       -To someone what ever       -From noreply possibly fake       -Subject Testing       -Body 123   NB -ExecutionPolicy ByPass is only needed if you haven t set up permissions for running PS from CMD  Also for those looking to call it from within powershell  drop everything before -Command  inclusive   and   will be your escape character  not
