E-mailing from Max/MSP

I've been successful with jit.uldl for getting data to/from my website, and now I'd like to go a step further. Is there any way to have Max send an e-mail message?

[mxj net.mail.send]

Check the help file, and especially the small characters at the bottom!

This is a silly question, but what help file? I only know how to get to general mxj help from the object itself. I went through the cycling74 program files and found net/mail/send.java, but no documentation for it.

When I try to make "mxj net.mail.send" I get 8 different cryptic error messages that deny creation. I just updated to the newest version of Java about an hour ago.

Option-clic (or Windows' equivalent keystroke) on [mxj net.mail.send] should open the net.mail.send.maxhelp help file. If it doesn't, the file resides where you expect it to be: Max5/Cycling' 74/java/help/

From the help file: "This class requires the free JavaMail and the JavaBean Activation Framework libraries. Installation instructions can be found in mxj tutorial number 9."

Thanks for all the explanation! The irony is that I couldn't call the help file without the object being instantiated, but the object couldn't be instantiated without the files the help file says to get... : )

After installing the necessary Java files, I went through the help file and looked at mxj tutorial 9. I am able to instantiate the object now, but I haven't been able to make it do anything yet. The help file isn't able to send a message.
