John, <<I have asked about a generic email and so far haven't found anything that "just works, every where, every time".>> Basically, you need to talk directly to a SMTP server. Even that however is not foolproof, but it gets rid of about 90% of the hassle. You can use BLAT (script and shell out to call the command line or use the DLL) or something like vbSendMail. I use the latter. Wrapped a class around it with a template table to set defaults for all the options and then call that from my apps.

ATM I do email lots of stuff, but it is always done through Outlook automation, which of course requires Outlook to be available at the time the email is generated. I have asked about a generic email and so far haven't found anything that "just works, every where, every time". John W.
