If you use SendObject then it is going to invoke whatever is the default MAPI
client on the PC. If you use code to automate a messaging library then you can
support any type of mail program where you can obtain and install such a
library. Your PCs apparently already have Outlook installed and on Windows 2000
and newer you already have the CDOSys library available.

I doubt that any web-based client offers any sort of dll or control you can
automate because NOT using such things is sort of the point of a web based
program.

You might very well be able to use FollowHyperlink and provide a URL that would
open the user's web browser and take them to Yahoo mail or GMail, but I don't
know what would be involved in trying to automatically start a new message and
pre-populate it with your desired body, subject, and recipients. Might be as
simple as using a mailto URL, but you would have to investigate that.
