Hi all Given the many posts on problems sending e-mails from clients' machines and/or mail clients, here's an alternative approach using HTTP and an outside Web server and SMTP server. <quote> I've added an interesting example to demonstrate something I don't think many people are aware of: You can send email over HTTP. Basically, you can use Chilkat XML in combination with the MWestern Email component to send email such that the email originates from your Web server. If you have an application that is distributed to client computers where you want to add email sending capability, but you are not assured of access to an SMTP server, you can use this solution to send mail. Here is the example: http://www.example-code.com/vb/vbHttpMail.asp Best Regards, Matt Fausey Chilkat Software, Inc. http://www.chilkatsoft.com </quote> /gustav
