      Within Cloverleaf 6.1 on UNIX, has anyone fired emails from an (tcl) xlate or tcl proc within a route?  Would you need MIME to accomplish this?

      Looking to send message-specific alert (i.e. “location”) that would fall outside the Cloverleaf GUI Alerts and preferring to not invoke the OS-level ksh reading from a file.

          We do this all the time from translations.  For example, in our provider MFN interface if we have an add transaction, we call an xltp proc that uses:

          exec mailx

          to send from our UNIX server (SMTP enabled, of course).

            thank you, Vince. Thats exactly what we were looking for (“exec mailx”) .

            I’ll share what we’ve built out once completed.

              Sounds like this isn’t what you’re looking for, but I’ll add it in case it helps others.

              package require shmc_email

              set subject “email subject”
              set message “An error occured when trying to send some data…”
              set email “me@someDomain.org”
              if [catch {shmc_email::email $email $subject $message} err] {
              puts “Error Calling SHMC_Email in $module — $err”
              }

                I wrote TclMail many years ago and it was used many, many times.  There may be better alternatives now but I assume it is still in the archives.

                  within the xlate, we used a conditional IF statement to determine if a notification would be sent.

                  system echo “Please remove the LaPOST document for $MRN $DOB” | exec mailx -s “CLOVERLEAF_EMAIL<encrypt>”

                   

                  this is intended to be sent only within our secure domain Exchange server.

                    Can anyone upload tclmail?  I haven’t been able to find it anywhere on the board since things were switched to the new format.

                      Here you go.  Note the pkg suffix.  I always install as a package.

                        Charlie – I updated the settings to allow .pkg files.  Please try again!
