Max, An SMTP Server manages the email for a domain or several domains like abc.com and xyz.com. That's why you need hMailServer. It will send out the email and receive email on your domains behalf and you pick it up from hMailServer via POP3 or via IMAP. You asked for an SMTP Server and hMailServer is exactly that... What you are trying to do is code up something so you can send email from your app to recipients based on some criteria am I right? In that case you need something like Blat and some code that will send out what you create through Blat which in turn sends it through your SMTP server. I have created a little example for you from an app I did a few years ago that works very well and does exactly what you need. Inside this zip file you'll find everything you need to create a solution from the documentation for Blat to the module I created to create the emails and send them out. You can download it here: http://download.actebs.com.au/blat.zip Inside the zip file you'll find a file called VladsEmailCode.txt which is the module you will need to research to get an understanding of how I went about it. You will also need to read the items in the docs folder to understand how to use Blat. Good luck, and if you need some more help get back to me...

It wants to install with MySql or Sql Server. Is there a workaround that you know off perhaps?
