Email yourself a list of files (docs, mp3's, videos, whatever)

[Russ]

This command will run the Powershell script below that emails you list of documents in your profile folder (c:\users\[username]):

powershell -file c:\scripts\emailmydocs.ps1

.

You can customize anything you want, but you have to change the bolded text.

.

___________Contents of c:\scripts\EmailMyDocs.ps1: __________

$doclist = get-childitem -path $env:userprofile -filter "*.doc*" -Recurse

$body = out-string -inputobject $doclist -width 999

$EmailFrom = "youraccount@gmail.com"
$Password = "yourGmailPassword"

$EmailTo = "your@email.com"

$Subject = "Your documents on $env:COMPUTERNAME"

$SMTPServer = "smtp.gmail.com"
$SMTPClient = New-Object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($SmtpServer, 587)
$SMTPClient.EnableSsl = $true
$SMTPClient.Credentials = New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential($EmailFrom, $Password);
$SMTPClient.Send($EmailFrom, $EmailTo, $Subject, $Body)

@Jd-pt, I'll try to get to this soon. In the meantime, do you have any questions.

If Gmail is blocking you from sending, you might need to turn on "Less secure apps" for this script to use Gmail's smtp server: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en
