What you have to do is call a third party function that will do the mailing for you.

You can use DBMS_PIPE.

Or you can have something like the apache web server installed on your system and have a php3 script that does the mailing for you:


  • <TITLE>Sendmail Response</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgcolor=#FFFFFF>

<h2>Sending mail using PHP3</h2>
<?

        echo("<i>To:</i> $To");
        echo("<p><i>Subject:</i> $Subject");
        echo("<p><i>Message:</i> $Message");


        mail($To,$Subject,$Message);

?>

<hr>

<?

        echo("<p> The message was sent to <b> $To </b>");

?>

</BODY> </HTML>

If you also had the oracle webserver with the the pl/squeel cartridge
installed you would write a pl/sql procedure that would call the above url.
