Hi Vlad & Stuart, I am afraid that BLAT is no good and neither are the other options which sends via an STMP Server. What I am after is to be able to send emails direct from my PC to an Email Address without going through an external SMTP Server. ie, I need a Local SMTP Server software. If you look at this URL http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Servers/E-mail-Servers/Free-SMTP-Server.shtmlyour will see what I am after, but all the version are handicapped in some way (ie, x emails a day or size restrictd etc). The actual code must be really simple but I cannot get my hands on any. Thanks for the interest.
