How and why to run 'Blat -install'

Blat does not need to be installed!
All the 'Blat -install' command does is store various parameters in the Windows Regestry!
-install <server addr> <sender's addr> [<try n times> [<port> [<profile> [<username> [<password>]]]]]

Syntax

Note: the [] characters indicate optional parameters. However, you may not skip any!

-install

the parameter indicating to Blat that the following are install parms :-)

<server addr>

SMTP Server DNS name or TCP/IP address

<sender's addr>

This is the "from" address - usually like tim@blat.tld

[<try n times>

How many times to try to send the message (defaults to 0 )

[<port>

What TCP/IP Port to connect to (defaults to 25/119 )

[<profile>

allows Blat to track multiple sets of settings (use -p to reference)

[<username>

UserName used for Authentication

[<password>]]]]]

Password used for Authentication

[-q]

Tell Blat to be quite when storing install settings in the registry

* may be replaced by '-' to set default, and allow following options
port defaults are SMTP=25, NNTP=119
order of options is specific
use -installNNTP for storing NNTP information

**Examples**
Blat -install	Sets the following (& = cumulative with the previous line)
blat -install localhost	server='localhost'
blat -install localhost tim@blat.tld	& from address='tim@blat.tld'
blat -install localhost tim@blat.tld 3	& number of times to send the message = 3
blat -install localhost tim@blat.tld 3 26	& TCP/IP Port to send the mail using = 26
blat -install localhost tim@blat.tld 3 26 FromTim1	& store the settings in a Profiles named : FromTim1
blat -install localhost tim@blat.tld - - FromTim2	use the default number of tries, and Port!
