I am not sure of how to handle the percent signs in filename - given this short and easy to understand BTM, also attached.

I have debugged the file but I can't see what is wrong now?

=======================================================================::
:: 1) send multiple files per email generated from DIR /S
:: 2) file names might have % signs ....
:: 3) if name of folder changes - email and the current folder name is the subject of the email
::
cls
echo %@repeat[=,%@winmetrics[5]]
set cListfile=twilight.lst
set nMails=0
setlocal
set nLines=%@lines[%cListFile]
for /L %line in (0,1,%lines) (
setdos /x-3
set cLine=%@line[%cListFile,%line]
:: setdos /x0
set cAtt=%cAtt /A %cLine
::
:: handle different folder name in line from %cListFile
:: rightmost \ will be significant
set nAt=%@index[%cLine,\,-1]
echo 1......
iff %nAt > 0 then
set cThisFldr=%@right[-nAt,%cLine]
iff NOT "%cThisFldr" == "%cCurrFldr" then
echo sendmail %cAtt /D /I1 /P1 /R /S1 /V "[email protected]" "%cCurrFldr" Files are attached
set nEmails=%@inc[%nEmails]
echo Emails: %nEmails
set cCurrFldr=%cThisFldr
unset cAtt
endiff
endiff
:: end handle....
echo 2......
iff %@eval[%line mod 5] eq 0 then
echo sendmail %cAtt /D /I1 /P1 /R /S1 /V "[email protected]" "%cCurrFldr" Files are attached
set nEmails=%@inc[%nEmails]
echo Emails: %nEmails
set cCurrFldr=%cThisFldr
unset cAtt
endiff
)
iff %@eval[%line mod 5] ne 0 then
echo sendmail %cAtt /D /I1 /P1 /R /S1 /V "[email protected]" "%cCurrFldr" Files are attached
set nEmails=%@inc[%nEmails]
echo Emails: %nEmails

would generate 3 emails. if there were more than 5 files in any one folder - that would generate more emails...

Sample output now....

I hardly looked at it, but SETDOS /x-4 should come in very handy.

I believe Vince already answered this, but setdos /x-3 disables all
variable expansion which is not what you want. You just want to disable
nested variable expansion which is setdos /x-4.
