Hi,

Not through outlook express but you can use the system.web.mail
class to send emails.

account.

Outlook Express doesn't provide an automation object model, thus there is no
direct way to control Outlook Express. However, you can use .NET's
'System.Web.Mail' namespace to send emails:

Roni,

As far as the user acknowledge is it simple to sent email using Outlook
Express
(I typed it here in this message so watch typos).

Process.Start (mailto:"WhateEverEMailAdres? & _
subject="OutlookExpress&body="I hope this helps")

(This uses the default EmailClient so that has to be set to OutlookExpress
than)

I hope this helps,

Cor
