I have software that sends emails out for reports. The software calls the default mail client (Thunderbird) and sends the email. However this opens Thunderbird and gets in the way. Is there anyway that this could send the email without opening Thunderbird? Can it run in the background like outlook express? It needs to close after email is sent.
