Thanks. Also found a way to do it with CURL in Linux
`# !/bin/bash

MAIL_FROM=[email protected]
MAIL_RCPT=[email protected]
EML=0000004b.eml
SERVER='192.168.100.175'
PORT=25
curl smtp://$SERVER:$PORT -v --anyauth --mail-from $MAIL_FROM --mail-rcpt $MAIL_RCPT --upload-file $EML
`
Maybe useful.

Thx for sharing. Most useful for me... Works like a charm...
This also works
swaks -f [email protected] -t [email protected] -d /path/to/emlfile
Found it later here

Thanks for your solution with curl ... today it helped me out big time! :-)
