ssl secure sockets layer
only required for secure email server
WHY does cdo not work?

have you tried sample code from the forum

Set objmessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
      objmessage.Subject = "Example CDO Message"
      objmessage.From = "[email protected]"
      objmessage.To = "me" ' sent to myself, not at gmail
      objmessage.TextBody = "This is some sample message text."
       
       objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
       
      'Name or IP of Remote SMTP Server
       
       
      'Type of authentication, NONE, Basic (Base64 encoded), NTLM
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
      'Your UserID on the SMTP server
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "usernm"
       
      'Your password on the SMTP server
       
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "pass"
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "smtp.gmail.com"
      'Server port (typically 25)
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 465
      'Use SSL for the connection (False or True)
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl") = 1
      'Connection Timeout in seconds (the maximum time CDO will try to establish a connection to the SMTP server)
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
      ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout") = 30
      objmessage.Configuration.Fields.Update
      objmessage.Send
      Set objmessage = Nothing

change to and from email addresses and username and password
if you are not using gmail you may need to change port and server
gmail will not accept some types of attachments and will not allow sender spoofing

another free server is GMX


other options, upload to ftp server, using ftp, can have several advantages
