'''Mail''' is one of the ''killer apps'' for the [internet] 
(along with the [WWW] of course).

On this page, I hope to accumulate pointers to various related programs, 
extensions, wiki pages, etc. relating to dealing with mail from
Tcl.

Here are some other mail-related links in the Wiki:
   * [IMAP] - Tcl implementations of this mail protocol
   * [MUA] - mail user agents in Tcl
   * [mail notification tools (i.e., biff)]

'OTOH this works fine:

  % exec cmd /c start "" mailto:xxx@something.yyy?subject=abc^&body=bbb

[[give ref]]

[MG] It looks like this is an MS Windows-only way to launch your default email client, 
rather than to actually send the mail via Tcl. ''cmd /c start'' 
(or, for more portability, '''[[auto_execok start]]''') 
<cmd> is basically the same as typing <cmd> into the Start->Run dialog box - 
which can launch programs, directories, or pretty much any hyperlink/web protocol 
that Internet Explorer can handle (mailto:, telnet://, ftp://, etc).

http://patches.freeiz.com/alpine/%|%Alpine%|% is a community-supported continuation of the venerable Pine email messaging system.  One of its features is Web Alpine, a complete cgi-driven web browser client.  The cgi code that manages the client interface, does session management and interacts with the server-side Alpine program is written in Tcl with the help of [cgi.tcl]
