no purchase necessary, which is probably good as the code didn't work at first go. in the end all i needed was

loEmail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

loEmail.To = email_to
loEmail.From = email_from
loEmail.Subject = email_subj
loEmail.Body = email_body

loEmail.Send

which is exactly like the code in VBScript in ASP! to be honest i never
thought that the code in ASP would be the same otherwise i would have
tried it earlier.

I actually have this running in asp code but want to move to a dll as it is referenced in several places. i am using the default smtp engine on a w2k a-server with iis. any ideas/help appreciated.
