Actually I tried to read the servers response after sending each line, but the
"gets $s_ptr" command just hangs. (I do get a response to HELO, and but not after 
other commands). Any thoughts on this?

Which ones?

I'm using the TCL shell in a Communications testset, and it doesnt have the
required packages/libraries installed. It offers just basic functionality.

The reason I dint try to make the code very robust is that this email-capablity
is not a critical (or even a nescessary) part of the script. Just put it in to
let me know the status of a test-script if run over the weekend. However, I 
would be grateful for any suggestions/tips.

Thanks,
Hans
