I sure hope they don't forget us who have written scripts in WSH for years.  I write a ton of console based applications and the simplest thing in WSH using CDO to send email is a major chore in .NET console apps.  Thank goodness there is OpenSMTP to reference for sending emails.  It's more powerful than CDO but it fills a gap, I could reference CDO i guess in VS.NET but I try to keep things 100% .NET and not using legacy COM_Interop if I don't have too..  Inside asp.net webpages there is system.web.mail but nothing that I know of for scripting.  From what I heard the Unix for Services 3.5 will be integrated into Longhorn.  Any truth to that?
