How can I send mail WITHOUT using outlook?
This means no MAPI obviously.

I would like to send mail strictly in VBA without
having to depend on a mail client.

(In fact, "MAPI" does not imply Outlook. You could in theory develop your
own MAPI-based software to send your messages. But my perception is that
there is no easy way to do that).

In Windows 2000, XP and later you can use the CDO for Windows 2000 object
library to send directly via an SMTP server. The MSDN library has all the
necessary info. and examples.
