I would the two best options would be to use the 
aforementioned "exec sendmail" or use an existing,
open-source SMTP client library.  There is an
LGPL'd one here:

I would recommend against writing your own low-level
socket / smtp protocol stuff... why re-invent the wheel
when libraries already exist?


TTYL,
