Email in VB6

Post subject:  Email in VB6
We need (or rather want - to make our lives easier) to create a programme
at my co-op placement that can automatically do the system checks online
(we are fine for that part) instead of manually and email the results to the
IT department.

Was wondering how to solve that part - really stuck.
Anybody have any ideas about how to do this
(the emailing part)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not a VB guy, but there is a MAPI control. Try something like
VB:

MAPISession1.SignOn
MAPIMessages1.SessionID = MAPISession1.SessionID
'Compose new message
MAPIMessages1.Compose
'Address message
MAPIMessages1.RecipDisplayName = "Recipient Name"
MAPIMessages1.RecipAddress = email@somesite.moc
' Resolve recipient name
MAPIMessages1.AddressResolveUI = True
MAPIMessages1.ResolveName
'Create the message
MAPIMessages1.MsgSubject = "System Scan results"
MAPIMessages1.MsgNoteText = "The message data goes here"
'Add attachment
MAPIMessages1.AttachmentPathName = "c:\xyzzy.zip"
'Send the message
MAPIMessages1.Send False
MAPISession1.SignOff

Umm, don't ask me to explain it. Especially the part about MAPIMessages1.Send False. I just snagged it after googling "sending email in vb6"

Cheers
