writing a program to send e-mail isn't the simplest thing in the world. I know - I've tried myself to do it.
What you'll need to do is look up the Winsock API and the SMTP protocol. Familiarise yourself with both, then build the system bit my bit.

Ok, i mean for my probram i've got everything i need except for this, i know the Winsock control (is that the same as the api?) but i dont know anything about how to use the STMP protocal

The Winsock control is an ActiveX control used in VB as a 'wrapper' for the Winsock API, so while it does the same stuff, to use the API directly means you'll be using Winsock at a lower level. As for SMTP, it's a simple enough protocol (text-based, like all good Internet protocols). Google is your friend ;)
