I'm not sure about it (if it works under Win98), but you may give it a try:
http://www.indyproject.org/Sockets/Download/DotNet.iwp

There you have two main components for sending e-mails:
Indy.Sockets.SMTP
Indy.Sockets.Message

Hi Venugopal,

You have to create a Indy.Sockets.Message.

Then you have to set the Message.Subject, the Message.Body (using
Message.Body.Text or Message.Body.Add), the Message.Recipients and the
Sender
For sending the actual email, you need to create a Indy.Sockets.SMTP
component.

SMTP has some properties, most of them are self describing:

Username
Password
Host
Port


If you have a smtp server which doesn't require authentication, you don't
need to set Username and Password

Then you should connect to the smtp server and send the message:

MySMTP.Host = "smtp.myhost.com";
MySMTP.Connect();
if (MySMTP.Authenticate)
{ // Authenticate determines whether login is required
MySMTP.Send(MyMessageInstance);
}
MySMTP.Disconnect();
