How do I send a file with e-mail from a C++ program

[camilla]

I have a server program written in C++.
I want to be able to send a file via e-mail from the program. The file is located on the server.

You will need to learn about the following technologies:

Sockets
SMTP
MIME

Hope this helps

I would look for a component to do this. Something I drop onto a form (like a timer in VB or common dialog control in VB) and can just tell it to send whatever message I want. There has to be something out there like this. Email is too popular not to have something like this out there.
