PSCX - Send-SmtpMail

FYI, in the next drop of the PowerShell Community Extensions we will have a Send-SmtpMail cmdlet:

1# gcm Send-SmtpMail | fl

Name : Send-SmtpMail
CommandType : Cmdlet
Definition : Send-SmtpMail [-SmtpHost <String>] [-PortNumber <Int32
>] [-Credential <PSCredential>] [-From <String>] -To <
String[]> [-Cc <String[]>] [-Bcc <String[]>] [-Subject
<String>] [-Body <String>] [-AttachmentPaths <String[
]>] [-AttachmentLiteralPaths <String[]>] [-Timeout <In
t32>] [-HtmlBody] [-Verbose] [-Debug] [-ErrorAction <A
ctionPreference>] [-ErrorVariable <String>] [-OutVaria
ble <String>] [-OutBuffer <Int32>]
Send-SmtpMail [-SmtpHost <String>] [-PortNumber <Int32
>] [-Anonymous] [-From <String>] -To <String[]> [-Cc <
String[]>] [-Bcc <String[]>] [-Subject <String>] [-Bod
y <String>] [-AttachmentPaths <String[]>] [-Attachment
LiteralPaths <String[]>] [-Timeout <Int32>] [-HtmlBody
] [-Verbose] [-Debug] [-ErrorAction <ActionPreference>
] [-ErrorVariable <String>] [-OutVariable <String>] [-
OutBuffer <Int32>]

Path :
AssemblyInfo :
DLL : C:\Program Files\PowerShell Community Extensions\PsCx.
Snapin.dll
HelpFile : PsCx.Snapin.dll-Help.xml
ParameterSets : {Authenticated, Anonymous}
ImplementingType : PsCx.Snapin.Commands.SendSmtpMailCommand
Verb : Send
Noun : SmtpMail

It can be used like so:

3# Send-SmtpMail -SmtpHost smtp.org -Credential (get-credential)
-From john_doe@foo.com -To jane_doe@bar.com
-Subject "Test Subject" -Body @"
>> Hi Jane,
>> Wassup?
>> --
>> John
>> "@
>>

or

4# Send-SmtpMail -To jane_doe@bar.com -Anonymous
-Subject "Vacation Photos" -Body "Check these out"
-AttachmentPaths *.jpg

Note that the last example relies on some PSCX preference variables being set (PscxSmtpHostPreference and PscxSmtpFromPreference).
