Hello santana! I don’t know what a “Natural Web program” is. But of course it is possible to write e-mail from Unix - even in batch mode. But it depends on the sort of Unix you are using and the configuration of that system. But almost every Unix should know the commands mail or mailx. On my system sending an e-mail looks like this: ```auto echo "this is my mail text" | mailx -s "My subject" user@host.com ``` And if I want a Natural program to execute that command, I would use a “CALL SHCMD” for that. Hope this helps. ---
