I have an application that writes text files as confirmation letters and I
would like to write a script to send them out.

I was planning on using the following:

telnet mail.myisp.com 25 <<_EOF_
EHLO me.atmydomain.com
MAIL FROM: <user@atmydomain.com>
RCPT To: <user@anotheruser.com>
DATA
quit
_EOF_

What I don't know is how to input the text file into this message. I have
tried to redirect it using DATA < file.txt, but that didn't work. Should or
could something like this work.

Thanks,
