Is there any way to send an email (either from a VB program or ASP or HTML)
if the machine has no Outlook and/or SMTP server ?
Thank you

If they have not blocked it, you can sometimes use the smpt server from your
Internet provider.

Look first if there are regulations about that.

At some point you need a SMTP server. It could be an external server (for
example Gmail). Depending on what you are looking for you could also post to
a web server and this server could then get those date and send a mail...

Some more details about the overall situation could help.

If it is your local computer, then installing IIS will provide a local
SMTP server. If you hosting on a shared server, the hosting provider
would have already configured an SMTP server. In most cases, you
wouldn't have to specify an SMTP server address. You just need to simply
set the from and to addresses and call send.
