And to be even more specific...
<QUOTE>
One of the features of Axosoft's flagship product, OnTime, is the ability to send out email notifications when a defect or feature has been created, changed or deleted.  This feature seemed pretty straight forward and we were excited to find the SMTP class in the System.Web namespace of the .NET framework, but after implementing email notifications using the .NET Framework's version of the SMTP sendmail, we realized many of our test clients were getting CDO related error messages.  These error messages were driving us nuts as there is little information out there on how to fix such the CDO error issue for applications that are being deployed on a wide number of systems.

Here's the source, along with free C# implementation of smtp class:

Aww now I'm even more confused. I though mail sending should be very 
v??y simple <task>. In short - whatever CDO is I don't have it - missing 
cdo*.* in system32 folder. In order to install it, I have to either 
install outlook or ms exchange according to MS site. I checked 3 pcs 
around - 2003 misses it, XP64 misses it too and XP32 has it. So it turns 
out by default nant lacks mail support on some (in my case most) 
systems. NET fault it seems. I will move forward to installing some of 
these to get the cdo support but it is not a great solution, can nant be 
made to use something more reliable for email tasks?

.net framework (atleast 1.1 for sure) don't send directly to smtp port
TCP/25. Instead, it uses CDO object, which is some COM system beast. And
this thing has to be inicialized. You have to do it just once. You could
uninstall OE then. I dont know, whether Thunderbird uses/inits CDO.

Perhaps there is some way how to accomplish this initialization by hand,
without OE magic. Try to search for "System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail". That is what
nant is using.


btw: Confusing? Mailing systems are! Wish MS do some cleanup it this area.
Perhaps WinFX...
