Sending mail (invisibly) from inside a Mac LC app

Richard,

We as developer are always open to various viewpoints. Here is the solution I had implemented long time back on similar lines at a fortune 10 company (without LC) but should do the job to your expectation:

-Have an additional database server (mysql/oracle) in your corporate env. 
-send the message & userid/machineid as record to that server.
-write the email code for on-insert (or post insert) trigger based on your need.
- on-insert trigger, if you want to store all messages for user/machine/error analysis later
- post-insert trigger, if you do not want to store these messages on the server and delete them after sending the email.

Hope this helps!

Best Regards,
Pradeep

Fascinating responses here. Quite a spin folks are putting on my message 
without even asking first.

The program is looking for signs of system failure on the Mac, before 
drives crash or other problems get out of hand.

Nothing to do with the user.
