Use TCP/IP sockets for that.  There is a WinSock API for that exact purpose.

Email is sent via various protocols (namely SMTP and IMAP4) that are built
on top of TCP/IP.

That is a completely different matter altogether.

That goes back to using TCP/IP sockets again.

Indy and ICS and various other libraries are open-source, so you can see how
they are implementing and using TCP/IP sockets at the API level.  There are
also numerous WinSock tutorials and such available as well.  Just search
around.

Look at socket(), bind(), connect(), and send() in the WinSock API.  Of
course, the other machine needs to be running a TCP/IP server in order to
accept the incoming data.  Look at socket(), bind(), accept(), and recv()
for that.
