Blat, sending to multiple recipients - NOT WORKING

[Brian]

Hi,
I'm using the current version of Blat on a win2000 machine. It works
great, but I can't get it to send to more that 1 recipient. I have
tried adding more than 1 on the command line and I have tried using
the -tf switch with a text file with there names. Does this work and
does anyone have an example.
Thanks,
Brian

Yes, the following is one long line:

blat BlatBody.txt -f cl...@domain.com -server smtp.domain.com -to
t...@domain.com,cu...@domain.com,le...@domain.com -cc
fr...@domain.com,ma...@domain.com -subject Blat -attach blat189.zip
-attach Blat.htm

I've used the above, only the names have been changed...

Replace "W" with "L" in email.

Clay,
Thanks for the quick response! This doesn't seem to work for me.
look at the following:

p:\email_reports\blat\blat me_body.txt -s "MonthEnd Salesman Reports"
-to q...@xyz.com,1...@123.com -attach
p:\email_reports\outbox\monthend.exe

I get 1 email to q...@xyz.com, it has both addresse in the one email,
but 1...@xyz.com doesn't get an email. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,
It works ok for me too (I have Blat v1.8.2b, under W2K[SP2]). The syntax I used
is similar to Clays; the recipient list /before/ the subject.

Brian,
I am using version v1.8.9
For using the -tf switch, be sure to include the path of the list file. And
do not put a CR/LF on the last email address.

example

blat c:\message.txt -tf srcpath\tolist.txt -s "Send mail" -attacht
c:\path\attachment.txt

tolist.txt would look like

us...@123.com
us...@123.com
us...@123.com

With no cr/lf on the last address.

Tried all of your replies - still not working? I am using v1.9.4 maybe
that has something to do with it? I'll keep trying.

Brian,

Have you tried to use the -debug switch to list all of the commands to the
screnn, this will let you see all communications between you and the smtp
server.

If you ahve any screen example of the balt session or any error please post.
This will enable us to have a better idea of the issues you are having.

Here's the debug:

The transaction succeeded and the server accepted the multiple addresses
without complaint. They may have spam prevention in effect disallowing
multi-address messages so this problem will have to be taken up with the
SMTP server owner.

Mate it's been a long time but I had the same issue with this software 17 years down the track...

Simple fix / workaround is...

copy and paste same commands in a batch with the multiple email addresses you require.

Not the most efficient way but it works

Thanks

Nope. The most up to date current version of BLAT has a serious bug in it when doing this on Windows Server 2012. As well as it also refused to do its main purpose --- send to an external email addresses outside of our organisation using a typical third party mail server. I emailed the dude and said "the current version simply suxs. Has bugs in it left , right and centre. These need to be fixed". The dude said "no it doesn't, everything works fine". I sent another email on to the Blat yahoogroups site ~six months ago, and got the same response.
Rightio then. FINE!.
I simply googled and found an earlier version, downloaded and installed it, and everything works sweetly on Win Server 2012. Assuming that all of this will do the same on Win 2000.
