I've had great success calling IS from a .BAT file, followed by a
call to a program to send e-mail. I break up my scans into
smaller pieces, then the .BAT file looks like this:

  iss_winnt -k iss.key -f hostfile1.hst -p "policy_name"
  perl mail_sending_script.pl "Done with hostfile1.hst"
  iss_winnt -k iss.key -f hostfile2.hst -p "policy_name"
  perl mail_sending_script.pl "Done with hostfile2.hst"
  iss_winnt -k iss.key -f hostfile3.hst -p "policy_name"
  perl mail_sending_script.pl "Done with hostfile3.hst"
  iss_winnt -k iss.key -f hostfile4.hst -p "policy_name"
  perl mail_sending_script.pl "Done with hostfile4.hst"

Of course this involves the overhead of installing Perl
and learning one of the several modules it provides for
email (check the LWP bundle).

En paz,
Steve
