SMTP from a batch file

Comment:
I have created some maintenance batch files (ie. clean up tmp files, reboot server, etc.) that are scheduled to run on an NT server. I would like them to send an email ( SMTP )reporting there progress or completion status. Is there a way to send SMTP emails from a batch file? Is there a command line program that would work? Is there a way to run a telnet session from a batch file? I know how to send an email "manually" using a telnet console, but I do not know how to run it from a batch file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please let me know if you found anything better. Thanks.
