I just had a pleasant experience using CDO for Windows 2000 (CDOSYS), a component installed by default in Windows Windows 2000, XP, and Server 2003. For Vista, Windows 7 and later, the library is distributed as Collaboration Data Objects, version 1.2.1. (But, I haven't tested 1.2.1) Unlike the old CDO for NTS, I was able to easily send email with just the address and port of a SMTP server using CDOSYS. The component required no installation on my XP box.
