>>I've got several samples on my website for this very thing. You might want to look at some of them and incorporate the code. I think Randy Brown was the originator of most of it. On an ancillary note, have you looked at Rick Strahl's wwipstuff for doing email. It's much lighter than outlook and also allows asynchronous emailing. One thing to watch though is that you have to throttle the emails or you'll quickly run out of threads.

>We have had trouble from time to time with wwIPStuff doing mass e-mails. Is this the cause? How have you handled "throttling" the emails?
I think that may be the problem. I talked with Rick about it last year and said it launches a thread per email. I handled mine by putting in a wait after each 100. I think the sleep api call would be even better. Of course, now I've got a mail server and it's not a problem. I just create a list and it deals with it.
