Hello...
Is it possible to open Outlook Express 6, log onto my identity and send a simple email in vc++6 code? (Preferably with Outlook Express hidden at all times)

Any help would be extremely appreciated and thanks in advance...
 
Well it might be possible, but no one in their right mind would try to do it just to send an email. [lol]

SMTP is one of the easiest internet protocols to implement from a client perspective. That would be much simpler than trying to manipulate an external process that was not designed to be manipulated.

Thanks for reply...
Wouldn't know where to start... :-(

Say I had the following function:
Code:
void SendEmail(const char * ToAddress, const char * MessageSubject, const char * MessageBody)
{
}

Could you fill in the blanks? :cool:

Perhaps you should consider hiring a professional software developer for the project?

hmmm...
Only having troubles sending emails...
Everything else is complete...
