Hi

this will get you started:

at the top of your project
Imports System.Web.Mail

then the code behind for example a button

try
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" IP of an smtp server
Dim Message As MailMessage
Message = New MailMessage()
Message.From = txtFrom.text
Message.To = txtTo.Text
Message.Cc = txtcc.Text
Message.Subject = txtSubject.Text
Message.Body = txtMail.Text
Message.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text
SmtpMail.Send(Message)
catch ex as exception
msgbox(ex.tostring)
end try

You can also attacht files but for the moment I haven't got time to
give you that code, but looking for that yourself won't hurt you.
