Here is the code I use:
As long as you are running XP Pro or higher you have access to a SMTP Server with IIS.
VB.NET:
Dim message As New MailMessage
message.To = txtEmail.Text
message.From = txtFrom.Text
message.Subject = txtSubject.Text
message.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html
message.Body = txtBody.Text
Try
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "127.0.0.1"
SmtpMail.Send(message)
Catch ex As Exception
Response.Write(ex.InnerException.Message.ToString)
End TryAs long as you are running XP Pro or higher you have access to a SMTP Server with IIS.

This is from the framework documentation:

The following example can be compiled to a console application that is used to send email from a command line. If you compile the example to a file named MailMessage.exe, use the executable file to send email as follows:
MailMessage to@contoso.com from@contoso.com test hello
