Hi All.

I'm interested in sending email with one of my programs without using an outside SMTP source like mail.hotmail.com, and instead using localhost.

Has anyone seen any classic VB examples of this?

Here's a program that does exactly what I'm looking for:

Reasons:
1 - This allows you to send your email using localhost as your smtp server (because this program makes your computer the smtp server) - over any port, even. Some ISPs block ports 25, 2525 and other ports associated with email sending, but with a program like this you don't have to worry about that.

2 - I think using an outside smtp server like hotmail, or gmail is fine for personal programs, and such, but if you're going to make a commercial product you can't use them, and more over it would be quite unprofessional.

Thanks =)
