My recommendation would be to use an HTTP post and then on your web
server, handle the post by sending out the correct email.
If you use the SMTP socket, which would also work, it will mean that
you'll have to either open up an SMTP port on your webserver, or have
the user fill in the appropriate information to do that themselves. It
will be much less complicated for your user to just fill in some
information and click send rather than having to fill out all their SMTP
information. Most users get very confused about what SMTP information
is or how to set it up.

I am building a text messaging application and how I want to send the
text message to the person is thru email. So I need to send a email to
the address specified in my to edit field
I have a Cell Phone Edit Field (to Editfield)
Phone System Combobox with a list of phone services
Message edit field
and a Send button
How can I send a email with all the data specified above
I want my application to have it's own email sending system
and not use "mailto:"
So I assume I need some kind of socket, are there any email examples
out there?
