Programming N73 to automatically e-mail photos?

I've got a script on my website that automatically extracts photos sent by e-mail or PXTed from phones. I'm wondering if there is a way to do the following:

1.) Programme the phone so when a photo is taken it is automatically e-mailed to a certain address.

2.) Programme the phone so it takes a photo at set intervals (say once a minute) and then e-mails them to a certain address.

I'm using my N73 as a test case and I'm fairly fluent in scripting and have a good solid IT background so I won't be fazed if it requires a bit of tinkering.

You might be able to guess that I want to be able to employ cellphones as miniature webcams for outdoor events in 3G coverage 😊

It�s possible... a phone like a surveillance camera. I think one, I saw a software for that... or maybe not:frown: I don�t remember any name...

I played around with m-shell yesterday - www#m-shell#net and came up with this script which works OK:

use cam
use graph
use mms
use files
use system
loop=1;
do
 cam.on(2);
 icon=cam.take();
 cam.off();
 s=graph.size(icon);
 graph.size(s[0], s[1]);
 graph.put(0,0,icon);
 graph.save("autopxt.jpg"😉;
 f=["autopxt.jpg"];
 mms.send("dropbox[at]myserver.net", "Testing AutoPXT",f); sleep(60000);
 loop=loop+1;
until loop>10
