As a temporary measure I've knocked up a PowerShell script to post links.

It's a manual operation I have to run once a day, but it'll work. If anyone wants a copy then shout.

Shouting!

My mouth dropped open when I saw this like, "OK, how...did he DO that?" lol

Will definitely take a copy of the script in the meantime, thanks. :)

[andrewducker]

Emailed.

With some instructions.

[marahmarie]

Thank you! Will check it over, asap.

[andrewducker]

Any luck?

Nope. Outlook apparently doesn't know what a .ps1 is, so it's disabled file download altogether (I can't even find a way from the source). Is the file publicly available so that I can just grab it and go? Or if you want to try my GMail address (maybe Google won't disable file download on it?) I can PM that to you.

Emailed you on it a few minutes ago. A (sort of messy) record of my progress can be found at https://marahmarie.dreamwidth.org/447277.html - if you want sort of a history on it (it's the closest it's been to almost working since I started, but something's still wrong).

Hi!

I totally will get back to you on this, but it'll be at the weekend when I have some spare time.

Okay - thank you! :)
