Mike,

check if you have the rights to send emails directly with SMTP. If you are using Outlook already you can be sure that the possibility is there. You may need to check this with someone who has configured you email server.
If you can use SMTP you could use CDO.
The code could look something like this:

Local iMsg,iConf
Declare SHORT InternetGetConnectedState In wininet.Dll;
INTEGER @lpdwFlags, Integer dwReserved
lConnect=displayState()
If lConnect
iMsg = Createobject("CDO.Message")
iConf = Createobject("CDO.Configuration")
Flds = iConf.Fields
With Flds
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = 'smtp.xxx.com'
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25
.Update
Endwith
TRY
With iMsg
.Configuration = iConf
.To = "What.Ever@WhereEver.com"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.From = "ranjan.brahma@atosorigin.com"
.Subject = "This is test message"
.TextBody = "This message was sent by the SMTP server"
*.AddAttachment("c:\temp\email.zip") && Valid filename
.Send
Endwith
CATCH
MESSAGEBOX('Failed to send message, check its contents and/or the smtp server settings',0)
ENDTRY
iMsg = .Null.
iConf = .Null.
wb = .Null.
Else
Messagebox("Could not send the message, your connection is down.")
Endif

Procedure displayState
Local lConnected
lConnected = .F.
lpdwFlags = 0
If InternetGetConnectedState (@lpdwFlags, 0) = 1
lConnected = .T.
Endif
Return lConnected
Endproc

I didn't write this code myself but found it with Google. I think it came from FoxWiki.

Ron
