General

• One simple UNIX command transfers the UNIX files to the specified PC and starts the default PC e-mail program (ex: Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, etc.) with the files attached to the message
  
  
• Recipients of the message can be specified in the UNIX command, complete with carbon-copy and blind carbon-copy designations
  
  
• A subject and body text can also be specified
  
  
• With the Deluxe license, a UNIX text file can be converted into a PDF file and included as an attachment, complete with an optional JPEG background (the form the data completes)
  
  
• Flexible PDF configuration templates can be created and specified on the command line for defining any number of configuration combinations to custom tailor the PDF file (ex: invoice, accounting report, etc.)
  
  
• The PDF supports widths of 80, 96, 132, 144 and 220 columns (with optional automatic detection), an option to fit to 8.5", and 6 or 8 lines per inch
  
  
• Any PC e-mail program that supports the "Simple MAPI" protocol can be started by AutoAttach
  
  
• No additional software or shared UNIX directories are required (FTP, Samba, etc.)
  
  
• Version 2.0 adds improved support for Windows Vista & 7 changes by Microsoft that caused incorrect Windows "MAPI" errors (see below for upgrade info)
  
  

This software requires that all PCs to use the product be connected to the UNIX server over a local network or VPN.

Note that the PCs must either have static IP addresses on the network or use the FineLine PC Tether or Samba software to determine the dynamic IP address.

Also, FineLine PC AutoAttach requires that the PC e-mail program use POP3 for retrieving e-mail because a bug in Windows causes MAPI errors when IMAP is used in lieu of POP3.

Supported UNIX platforms
