 Hi,

I'm trying to write an EMail client strictly for SMTP [Sending EMail Only].
I have tried, successfully, using various ActiveX controls and using MAPI. I
want to try and create a program that uses no external files.

The problem with MAPI is that it insists on having an Inbox and Address Book
setup already. I just want to create a simple program that enables me to
send an EMail message quickly with no frills.

If anyone can help [VB, Access or C/C++], I'd be very grateful.


Personal EMail replies would be welcome -> the-lone-ranger@clubi.ie


Thanx in advance
