Max,

Surely you have access to your ISP's SMTP server or if you're creating this
for a company, surely they have to their ISP or an internal SMTP Server like
Exchange which can handle the email.

Regards

Vlad

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-Serve
r.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.
Max
