Sending eMails within a .Net application is fairly simple with the use of the System.Net.Mail namespace.

First, import the class:

Imports System.Net.Mail

Then create a function to provide for sending the emails within a public class:

Public Shared Function SendEmail(ByVal strFrom As String, _
                       ByVal strTo As String, _ 
                       ByVal strSubject As String, _
                       ByVal strBody As String) As MailMessage 
        Dim objReturn As New MailMessage 

        Try 
            Dim objMail As New MailMessage(strFrom, strTo) 
            objMail.Subject = strSubject 
            objMail.Body = strBody 
            Dim SmtpMail As SmtpClient = New SmtpClient("smtp.mail.com") 
            SmtpMail.Send(objMail) 
            objReturn = objMail 
        Catch ex As Exception 
            objReturn = Nothing 
        End Try 

        Return objReturn 
    End Function

The Smtp client will be your local client.

Call this function from anywhere within your application or webpage.
