Sending email using MSH

This example is modified from one of my old VBScripts. It uses CDO to send message.

function email
($from, $to, $subject, $textbody)
{
 $msg = new-object -com CDO.Message
 $msg.From = $from
 $msg.To = $to
 $msg.Subject = $subject
 $msg.Textbody = $textbody
 $msg.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
 $msg.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "smtp.nospam.com"
 $msg.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25
 $msg.Configuration.Fields.Update()
 $msg.Send()
}

email "someone@nospam.com" "someone@nospam.com" "test using msh" "hello, world!"
