I have been able using the namespace System.Web.Mail and its method
Smtp.mail.send to mail simple text messages to a small group within
our 55 and older community. I need help expanding the programs
capabilities. Searching this forum I did not find any related
information so if I have chosen poorly, I would appreciate a
suggestion of a more appropriate dotnet forum.
Now what I wish is the ability to send bcc's rather than to: (would
be
sending to all 250 residents and would have to send in groups of 50
as
required by Comcast to curtail spammers) and also wonder if this
namespace handles base64 encoding so that I can send a pdf
attachment.
Appreciate,
Ed
Though it might not help with encoding (not sure) two excellent
sites
you need to check out are:
http://www.systemwebmail.com/
And
http://www.systemnetmail.com/
IMO if you are using 2.0 or higher you should be using
System.Net.Mail

Seith and Patrice too,
I have waded my way through all the references gave and digested
sufficiently to create a prototype that sends an email To: somebody,
with Bcc's to several others and can handle one or more pdf
attachments encoded with Base64 - and it works<g>. Obviously you guys
gave me excellent directions. I do have one more questions and that
is how is this stuff getting to the recipients. I am sending from my
home. I am providing system.web.mail with no information about my
ISP. Does my program act as a Server and do its own thing looking up
the DNS information for each of the recipients ISP's? When I use
commercial software such as Thunderbird or OE I must spell out the
smtp servicer and provide a username and password.
