Send Email from a Windows App

[Filippo]

Hi there,
I have a simple Windows App that needs to send an email.
If I were using ASP.NET, I would use the System.Web.Mail

What can I use in the Windows App Environment?

I don't want to purchase any 3rd party, quite obviously

Thanks,
F.

It works effectively the same within the namespace.

Well, you already answered your own question Use System.Web.Mail.
You just need to add a reference to System.Web and off you go

Hi all in the thread,

I have seen cases when System.Web.Mail didn't work as expected. I think this
is due to the underlying API it employs. I usually prefer COM Interop to
CDO - it allows specifying an arbitrary mail server as well as to have
control on many other aspects.
