I expect the file in the 'current' directory, hence the dot. Originally I had the full path in there, but it didn't work, so I thought I'd use the dot instead.
OK, just in case, I changed the path to E:\\MailRoot\\bin\\testfile.txt Nothing still. I also made sure cscript.exe and XMail.exe have permission set to 'Everyone' - 'Full Control' I also tried using XMail 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9 with the same result. Really weird problem.
