Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to retrieve the emailsettings of
Outlook or Outlook Express with vb.net? If yes does somebody perhaps
has a sample code? If not how can I send a email with my application
without knowing the provider of the user?


Kind regards,


Bart

You can use your own mail server to send e-mail. In fact I would probably
build a SMTP web service to send e-mail from an application... That is
probably the most secure solution if you don't have access to the user's e-
mail account settings.

What if the user doesn't use Outlook (express). Like Thunderbird,
Pegasus mail, Eudora or any other email program out there?
