I need to pass a message directly to my SMTP server without going through a mailclient. This is because the application will be used by many different users using many different clients, or maybe no client. The .SendObject method tend to crash access2000, so I don´t want to use it. Is it possible to use something like a mailobject that calls the SMTP server? I´ve seen it done in ASP, so it shouldn´t be impossible VBA, should it? If anyone could give help in this matter I would be eternally grateful, as it has been bugging me for quite a while now...

I have a db that MAY help if you send me your email address I'll forward it to you. It's based on DougP's FAQ on sending mail via MAPI.
