Use this to send email to a smtp server.

Read the article listed at the bottom of the page for more information about the functionality of this component.

This component can send very complex email that many mail clients can not read. Always be conservative when sending mail when you are unsure what mail client the recipients will be using. All the features work with Outlook, most with Eudora.
