Alternative to SendObject for Sending E-mail
Can anyone suggest an alternative to SendObject for sending E-mail from an Access 2000 database? I'm willing to buy a package if that's the easiest. I'm looking for something reliable which SendObject is not.

I'm doing e-mail internal to my company using Microsoft Outlook. Would Codestone be appropriate for that.
I shouldn't have any security issues. I'm using SendObject now and it stopped working with our lasted corporate PC image. In other words, all our new PCs don't send my database e-mail using SendObject. I understand there is a fix but I am considering better options (SendObject doesn't provide all the options that I would like).

My apps use Codestone side-by-side with Outlook with no troubles. You should be fine with it.

Redemption looks very interesting. I may also need it for another problem that I'm having - downloading our Outlook company address book (which as just stopped working recently). I'll open another question when I get to that issue.

I think I would like to go Codestone in the future. Right now I got my e-mail working using Microsoft's new SendObject source code. Since they gave me the source, I'm feeling better about using it.
Thank both of you for your help.
