h = actxserver('outlook.Application'); mail = h.CreateItem('olMail'); mail.Subject = subject; mail.To = to; mail.ReplyRecipientNames = from; mail.BodyFormat = 'olFormatHTML'; mail.HTMLBody = body;
% Add attachments, if specified. if nargin == 5 for i = 1:length(attachments) mail.attachments.Add(attachments{i}); end end
% Send message and release object. mail.Send; h.release;
I want to thanks a lot people that con help me in solving this problem.

Why send email through outlook or thunderbird, since you can do it directly from Matlab?

Because I utilize Thunderbird as mail program and I want to have a copy of the message that I send with matlab also in Thunderbird.
