As long as you don't need to send attachments and your emails are fairly brief, then ShellExecute can be used.

Here I'll show an example of sending email from VFP using CDO NTS. It is fairly similar in many regards to the previous entries, but note that both the mailformat and bodyformat must be changed to facilitate HTML in the body of the email.
