I assume this is a Fox app?

If you integrate SMTP email you need to ask the user for their email server so that they can send. Other than that it's just send the mail.

There are tools like wwIPStuff that acomplish this (http://www.west-wind.com/wwipstuff.asp). Also, Mabry has an ActiveX control for SMTP and I'm sure tehre are others out there that I don't know about <g>...

With wwIPStuff it's a few lines of code like so:

oIP = CREATE("wwIPStuff")
oIP.cMailserver = "somemailserver.net"
oIP.cRecipient = "rstrahl@west-wind.com"
oIP.cSenderEmail = "rstrahl@West-wind.com"
* oIP.cSenderName = "Rick Strahl"

oIP.cSubject = "Title"
oIP.cBody = "Message body"

* oIP.cContentType = "text/html" && Send HTML email

lnResult = oIP.Send()   (or oIP.SendMailAsync() )
IF lnResult # 0
   ? oIP.cErrorMsg
   RETURN
ENDIF

I want to distribute on the net to thousands of people(hopefully) and I thought the best would be to use what they have on their computer, this way thay can have a history of what they did. It's something I do in my spare time.
