Powerhsell Send Email Using Outlook

Purpose

Use Outlook to send email on behalf of user running the script, instead of using smtp.

Example

$file="$ENV:userprofile\Desktop\$samaccountname.csv"
try { $body | Export-Csv -LiteralPath $file -NoTypeInformation } catch {clear; echo "Failed to create file, let IT know this failed"; pause; exit}

$outlook = New-Object -ComObject Outlook.Application
$mail = $outlook.CreateItem(0)
$mail.subject = "New User $samaccountname"
$mail.body = "See attached for user properties"
$mail.to = "someone@somewhere.com"
$mail.attachments.add($file)
try {
$mail.send()

} catch {clear; echo "Failed to send email, let IT know this failed"; pause; exit}
