dear mikemany thanks for your responseit is comforting that there is a solution to the problemis it too much to ask you to walk me through the processlikestep 1...step 2...
to the point that I can send the first email from the dos command line.
my work environment is windows 10 and once I am successful I  intend to send emails directly from my FoxPro 9 application. 
In the meantime I shall certainly try out the 64 bit version of blat. I was using the 32 bit version which has failed upto now.


good to know that there is someone who cares enough to help..
I guess we all know what it feels like when we hit the brick wall
thanks

    I use blat with Foxpro 9 and Windows 10, so no issues there.  Test everything at the command prompt first. And you may find with W10 that 32bit and 64bit issues arise.  There are 64bit and 32bit versions of blat.   I’d try both.  Also, is there an SSL issue?    Mike Mattos  “To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you must also be well-mannered”
