Try using MS CDO (Collaborative Data Objects). We use it to send the trial
registration e-mails. Take a look at these prior newsgroup threads:

The Dolphin Live Update stuff uses the Istream class on a URL to get stuff
from a webserver. Take a look at LiveUpdate class>>urlContents.

If you want more control, however, then Steve Waring's HTTP client is a
great piece of code:

Not sure about this, however.

Well, I (as probably many others) do it through ftp - I did not try it but
http://www.dolphinharbor.org/dh/projects/goodies/wininet.html

sounds like a good start for doing ftp.

The other popular way I know is though micrososft frontpage extensions, I
have no experience here to do it programmatically, I just use it from the
frontpage/Interdev-Environments directly.
