Thanks! I checked out 'man metasend' and then noticed a reference to
'mailto,' which I also check in the man pages. I think I'll try 'mailto.'
I'm assuming I can write a script (which Python can handle) to send the
files, including the thumbnail.
OT: I'm also thinking of trashing the logo and the html and going back to
pure text. Most of my customers run Windows mail packages of one sort or
another, but that may change!
