Email with VB

I want to make part of my self standing .exe file (written in VB) send email.

I don't want the progra to spawn Outlook or anything, and I want people to be able to do it without having any email software configured.

Any way I can do this in VB5 Ent Ed?

Thanks

Private Sub Form_Load()
Winsock1.Connect server, 25
End Sub

Private Sub Winsock_Connect()
Winsock1.SendData "From:[email protected]"
Winsock1.SendData "To:[email protected]"
Winsock1.SendData "Subject:[email protected]"
Winsock1.SendData "Hello World!"
Winsock1.Close
Ens Sub()

it is not that easy man,

i have written mine and it supports sending/receiving multiple attachments, as well as BASE64 encryption algorithm, and it took me a good month.

good luck,

Your winsock idea sounds too easy. How would it know where it was sending the data?

if you dont know how the mail protocol works, you should check the smtp rfc:
