Hi,

I have some instructions using the SMTP server and CDO here:
http://www.gafvert.info/CrashCourseCDO.htm

It helps you set up the SMTP server, and create a few simple forms for
composing the email, and send it.

Note however that you might need to use a smart host, because port 25 is
blocked by many ISPs today. Look up smart host in the SMTP documentation
and you will see how to set it up (it is very simple, you just write the
name of your ISP's SMTP server).

Good Luck with your website!
