[RESOLVED] Send E-mail through outlook express

Is it possible to send and e-mail through outlook express via VB6?

Thank you,
Sir Loin

Not really since OE doesnt expose any valid COM interfaces for you to program against. ;)

That's true. But I think you can use the MAPI controls and they will use Outlook Express if that is the default e-mail program, since OE uses MAPI.

Darn. Do you have an example on how to send an e-mail otherwise?

Thank You,

Is this to present to the user UI, or should be transparent to the user?

Here is one good example in our CodeBank Forum.

Transparent to the user, I need to code a survey-type-thing that e-mails me the answers.
