how to send email by MS outlook express using C# code

[Mike Kitchen]

I have an example using the default email client on my web site if this is
any help to you.

using System.Diagnostics;

string toEmail = "de**@publicjoe.co.uk";
string subject = "Love the Program";
string body = "Thanks a lot";
string message = string.Format( "mailto:{0}?subject={1}&body={2}", toEmail,
subject, body );

Process.Start( message );

Example app can be found at

Hope this helps

Yes, I know the System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail and I'm using it.
But it require using a specific mail server that require authentication,
that require user name and password that can be easily seen by looking in the
assembly, so it require encrypting the user name name and password etc.

This is why I wish to send the mail using the current default email client.

How can that be done?

Take a look at MAPI.

An example of using Simple MAPI can be found here:

Yes, It a nice example, although it can done more easily by
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.

But the trouble is that this sample also involve the user.
It causes the Outlook to popup a verification dialog asking the user to
allow the mail sending.

I I want to avoid any user disturbance.

Well your last post contained the statement

//

To do that you use MAPI, to avoid the user intervention in MAPI you
will have change the security settings on the users machine.

Now, to use authenticateion with SmtpMail check out this page:
http://www.systemwebmail.com/faq/3.8.aspx

It is really very simple, and simple typing "SmtpMail Authenticate"
(without the quotes) into Google brings up many
discussions/articles/examples on the subject.
