Send Mail in Windows 98 Not Working

[squirrelly1]

I have included a mailing feature in my latest project and seem to have come across a pretty big problem. Durring testing, I tried to send an email from a Windows 98 machine and recieved an error telling me that the feature is only available in the later versions of the Windows operating system.

Below is a sample of the code I was trying to use. Does anyone know what I have to install on the client machine for this to work, or is there another way of sending an email through an SMTP server?

Dim Mail As New MailMessage
        Try
            Mail.To = "[email protected]"
            Mail.From = MailAddress
            Mail.Subject = ComName
            Mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text
            Mail.Body = BuildBody()
            SmtpMail.SmtpServer = MailServer
            SmtpMail.Send(Mail)
        Catch ex As Web.HttpException
            MsgBox("Error:  Check Settings.")
            Dim request As frmSettings = New frmSettings
            request.ShowDialog()
            request.Select()
            LoadSettings()
            Exit Sub
        End Try

Thanks for any help you all can offer,
