MAPIControl in VB6 vs STMP in VBNET

[Winla]

I am having problem to make email code working with VB .NET. I cann't even re-register Cdosys.dll file. I might have problem with my email server setting such as relay setting. Too many things to take care to make email code working. Looking back VB6, it is so easy to use Mapicontrols to manage emails, you can use default email program to send out email and you don't have to specify your mail server address in code. Anywa, is there a way in .Net doing the same thing, using the default email program and no mail server setting requirements?

I have seen many ways , but they need IIS or SMTP (forgot which one) to be installed . Why don't you look for any 3rd party SMTP control !!

I would like put the question more clear. I would like my sending Email function in Windows application to work at any computer by using its default Email program. So I wouldn't havt to specify an email server name in my code. I am not sure ether if every computer with email service has a SMTP server installed locally.
How to achieve that in VB.NET? Seems to me that System.Web.Mail is mainly designed for web application?


I might has to go to a third party SMTP Control, but that is last choice
