Hi Shane,
1. For emailing I use WestWind WWIPSTUF.DLL which you can find in the files section or at his WWW site at:
http://www.west-wind.com/webtools.htm. It's public domain and it works pretty fine. You won't need any other email client, it does everything for you.
2. For faxing I did once with WinFax Pro and with a DDE connection. It work smoothly and the help files document how to do it. The drawback is that the client has to buy WinFax Pro.
3. Dialing: I do it with MSCOMM32.OCX and I have no problems.
If you want the code I used or any other information, just email me at: BOYDA@cmet.net
Good luck,
Javier.
