curl command line is not opening

Most of the research said me use curl for sending email.(I'm right this think?)

Problem: I downloaded this version of curl Win32 2000/XP 7.31.0 libcurl SSL Günter Knauf 3.32 MB. But command line did not open. Infact command line is opening. But cmdline instanly disappear when i clicked curl.exe. My system info: Windows 7 64 bit note: You can ask question why you download windows xp version. Answer: I did not find related verison of my system. Where can i download related version and how can i solve this problem.

Thanks!

It is closing instantly. So, open the command line and directly to that folder(shortcut goto the bin folder & go to the address bar(ALT + D) and type 'cmd'). There type curl

Or if you want to open directly without going to that folder, set it in environment variable 'path' up to '/bin' like 'D:/sw/curl/bin'

If still does not works, download OpenSSL and open openssl.exe and check typing 'version'

If curl still does not work download Mozilla certificate and keep it in 'C:\Windows\System32' file named "cacert.pem"

If still not running check if you are using any proxy, if yes add --proxy --proxy http://w.x.y.z:port w.x.y.z is ip, port is port number in proxy

If I understand you right, the curl you meant is a cli tool, so you should first open a terminal (console ?), and type curl command, you may want to read man curl for detail, how to use the tool. Simply double click curl won't work. (I am not familiar with windows stuff, correct me if I am wrong).

Also if you want to send email (via smtp), you need give related parameters. like --mail-from, --mail-rcpt ... again, read the manual of curl.
