You don't even have to use Outlook. There's a VB control out there that we bought to write programs that do SMTP directly to mail servers. It's called Easy Mail. -----Original Message----- From: Braebaum, Neil [mailto:neil.braebaum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, January 10, 2003 12:40 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: DL question... I guess what I was kinda hinting at, is whether you could create the message via some VBA stuff, craft the header that way, so that the relevant fields were as you like. I've only done a small amount of scripting using VBA and Outlook, though, so I was speculating a bit. Think there's a developers guide book on using Outlook which would probably have a fair deal of scripting stuff.
