At first I set up and was very successful sending emails from my standalone using the on-rev.com server that is my host (following these instructions: http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4 ... er-scripts). The problem that I hit is that, once again, the on-rev.com server has stopped sending ALL emails (for wordpress, photocart, machforms and other applications I have running on there as well as anything form my own .lc code that processes emails created in my standalone). I've submitted a support request for this problem but am still waiting. This happened about a year ago and eventually they got it fixed (not sure how or I'd suggest it to them again!), however this time around it's not just my activities that are being affected (wordpress, photocart, etc., were all sending emails to me notifying me of things as people interacted with my websites hosted on on-rev.com), but now I have a client using the stand-alone that needs to process emails and it's not working for her...which is a BIG issue! Since this has happened in the past and each time it happens there is no warning (you think you've sent the emails until people start complaining that they never got them), I do not want to rely on this for a client.
So I began to look into other ways of doing it.
1. I tried just using the revMail command, but that doesn't work for the message of the email as she needs to be able to send html emails (they have a table in them displaying the dancers' account charges, credits and balance - the stand alone is for a dance studio).
2. So then I found the instructions for using Thunderbird (which she DOES use, so bonus there!) (http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4 ... tml-e-mail) and it works beautifully for sending ONE email - and only if Thunderbird has been shut down prior to attempting to send that email. If I try to send multiple (the way the stand alone works is that she can select various groupings of dancers and click a button to "send account statements" and it processes and creates the email for each dancer's account), it will open the first one and then for each subsequent one I get a pop-up saying "only one Thunderbird may be open at a time." I also get this pop-up if I try to send one without first closing out the Thunderbird app (highly irritating as many people, including my client, leave their email app open all the time).
So, to sum up...
Sending multiple html emails through the server worked until my server quit doing it.
And then sending multiple emails through revMail command worked except that I need them to be html.
And finally sending html emails through Thunderbird worked except for when Thunderbird is already open and when I need to send more than one at a time (which is often!)
HELP PLEASE!

THANKS!!
