[sukeshchand]

I want to know about steps behinds to send an email.

Try this:
[PHP]

Dim objOutlook
Dim objMailItem
set objOutlook = createobject("Outlook.Application")
Set objMailItem = objOutlook.CreateItem(olMailItem)

With objMailItem
.To = "e-mail address"
.Subject = "put subject here"
.Body = "put text here"
.Send
End With

Set objOutlook = Nothing
Set objMailItem = Nothing [/PHP]

Slightly different in vb rather than vbscript:

Private Sub SendEmail()
    Dim olApp As New Outlook.Application
    Dim olItem As Outlook.MailItem
 
    Set olItem = olApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
 
    With olItem
        .To = "email address here"
        .Subject = "testing mail"
        .Body = "This is a test"
        .Send
    End With
 
    Set olItem = Nothing
    Set olApp = Nothing
 
End Sub

You will need to set Microsoft Outlook as a reference in your project

I tested the above code. its ok.
But in the above code the program used outlook express to sending the mail. and we want to configured the outlook mail box perfectly to send mail.
I want to send mail without the help of outlook, and i want to send mail directly to mail server with out the help of any third party controls thanks
