A MS-DOS emulator for Win32-x64 systems. 16bit MS-DOS compatible commands can be executed on a Win32-x64 environment.
This emulator inherits the environment variables from the host Windows, and a target command can access the host's file path directly.
Execute 16bit MS-DOS compatible commands on a 64bit Windows system without the need to copy any files to/from a virtual machine (VMware, Virtual PC, XP mode, or others).

• This emulator DOES NOT support Win16 execution files.
• This emulator DOES NOT support graphic/sound hardwares and DOES NOT aim to support game softwares. Use DOSBox for this purpose.

Blat - A command line utility that sends email using SMTP or post to usenet using NNTP.

• For SSL support you can use stunnel
• Portable LWBlat GUI frontend

SwithMail can send SSL SMTP email silently from command line (CLI), or a batch file using Exchange, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! Plus, or a custom server.
It is windows application that is extremely easy to use. You run the program, set up basic settings (from address, to address, smtp server info, email subject and body), click save, and you're ready to send email using these settings silently from the command line, a batch file, or if a windows service quits.

CMail is a freeware command line e-mail sending tool for Windows, primarily intended for sending scripted e-mail, but it is simple enough to be used interactively. If you are looking for an alternative to Blat with SSL support (stunnel not required), or more control over message formatting, CMail may be a good choice.

UnZip by Info-zip will list, test, or extract files from a ZIP archive, commonly found on MS-DOS systems. The default behavior (with no options) is to extract into the current directory (and subdirectories below it) all files from the specified ZIP archive. A companion program, zip, creates ZIP archives; both programs are compatible with archives created by PKWARE's PKZIP and PKUNZIP for MS-DOS, but in many cases the program options or default behaviors differ.

Included utilities: unzipsfx (self-extracting stub for prepending to ZIP archives), funzip (filter for extracting from a ZIP archive in a pipe), unzipsfx-gcc, and GUI modes (SFXWiz32, SFXWiz32-gcc)

(Info-)Zip 3.0 is a compression and file packaging utility. It is compatible with PKZIP 2.04g (Phil Katz ZIP) for MSDOS systems. There is a companion to zip called unzip. So far zip has been ported to a wide array of Unix and other mainframes, minis, and micros including VMS, OS/2, Minix, MSDOS, Windows, Atari, Amiga, BeOS and VM/CMS. Highly compatible with PKware's PKZIP and PKUNZIP utilities of MSDOS fame. Primary objective has been one of portability and other-than-MSDOS functionality. Features not found in the PKWare version include creation of zip files in a pipe or on a device; VMS, BeOS and OS/2 extended file attributes; conversion from Unix to MSDOS text file format; and, of course, the ability to run on most of your favorite operating systems.

• Support archives greater than 2 GB and files in archives over the 2 GB previous limit (4 GB on some ports).
• Initial Unicode support.
• 16-bit OS support.
• Supports standard zip encryption.
• In addition to the standard store and deflate methods, Zip now can use the bzip2 compression format using the bzip2 library.
• Included utilities: zipsplit, zipcloak, and zipnote should work with large files, but they currently do not handle split archives.
