hello Mike,

if u intend to use MAPI, remember that ur application shall have a 
dependency on the mail client(Outlook etc). If the user has his/her 
personal account configured on the mail client then it could be an 
issue.

CDO, well never tried much but i suppose it has a dependency on the OS, 
CDONT on NT. (Correct me if I am wrong, Pls)

The best solution is to have VB connect directly to a SMTP Server using 
a Winsock control. POP3 if u expect the application to receive messages.

There are some good samples on www.vbip.com that u may wanna chk out. 
also chk RFC821 for more info on SMTP.

I have used a similar approach where my application communicates with 
other applications using XML via Email, and so far so good.

Regards,
