Namespace for email

I haven't done desktop VB apps in a while. I'm used to using the System.Web.Mail namespace for my ASP.NET applications, but this is not available.

What is the namespace for sending emails in VB.NET desktop?

Thanks in advance for your comments

Iâm not sure about this, but wouldnât System.Web.Mail still be the NameSpace to use? That seems to be where the mail objects are, irrespective of the app itself being a web app.

I figured out that the namespace was available, but I had to add it as a reference. It seems weird that the default setup doesn't include it, but it is available as "System.Web" reference file.
