A SENDMAIL equivalent?

[SergioQ]

Greetings,

In a certain Perl script I used to use SENDMAIL to send out some
important notification emails.

Now I no longer have access to that server, and was wondering if there
were some sort of equivalent that I could use in VC 6.0 SDK?
Something that I could easily send out emails from a home machine,
running an EXE I built, not from Linux....but the Win SDK?

I can't swear enough that this is NOT A SPAM THINGY. I SWEAR< I SWEAR,
I SWEAR.

Many thanks ahead,

As always,

Sergio

Though I've never done such programming, but I'm sure that there is no
such simple function in VC++, for there is a book with the title
"Internet programming with VC++" which contains a chapter on writing a
mail client. This chapter would be useless if such a function should
exist.

Take a look at code project, there are a lot SMTP examples/solutions:

BTW, in VC++ (7.1 or newer) you can use the ATL class CSMTPConnection
