Send mail in .NET

I want to write a winforms application in vb.net 2005 that send an email but
I know I need the smtp in order to send a mail, but the PCs where I install
the program (our customers) don't have smtp so how can I generate a message
and send it in email on there PC?

Have you set up Outlook or Outlook Express recently? It asks you for the
SMTP server address to use for outgoing email, and stores the server you
give it for use later. Your app will have to do the same.
