Re: New to Blat

Greetings,

When using Google email you need a program like Stunnel;

http://www.stunnel.org/

Go here for a Stunnel already configured for Gmail;

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/blat/files/Other/

Stunnel_portable.zip
Stunnel Portable for Gmail

You don't have to do a Blat -install or -savesettigns.
Everything you need to send email can be in your send string.

Stunnel Portable has a example.
