Send Email using Powershell – Digital Pixies Technologies

Recently having problems getting Windows Tasks to generate log files correctly. Ended up accepting email as a means of confirming actions have taken place with details that can be retrieved from a Sharepoint Document Library (suitably named “Logs”)

function sendMail{ param( [string] $From = "powershell@server.local", [string] $To= $(throw "To Param required."), [string] $ReplyTo = "powershell@server.local", [string] $Subject = "", [string] $Body = "", [bool] $IsBodyHtml = $true, [string] $SMTPServer = "127.0.0.1" )


     $msg = new-object Net.Mail.MailMessage
     $smtp = new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($SMTPServer)
     $msg.From = $From

     $msg.ReplyTo = $ReplyTo

     $msg.To.Add($To)

     $msg.subject = $Subject

     $msg.body = $Body

     $msg.IsBodyHtml = $IsBodyHtml;
     $smtp.Send($msg)

}

sendMail -To "test@test.test" -Subject "test" -Body " hello world"
