Ok so I have a question regaurding mail servers. Suppose I want to write an application that when a person opens it, it allows them to fill in their name and some comment and then send it to a centerilzed email server. I have the form and everything but i was wondering if there is a way to programaticlly determine someones default email server. I know in outlook when you create an account you specify a POP3 and SMTP server. Is there a way to find if a user already has one though? I'm trying to make the application as simplistic as possible. Any advice?
