Do you have to do this in elisp? The standard way is to have a local MTA on your machine do this for you, usually sendmail, exim or postfix. The usual way to configure them is to use a smarthost for delivery, perhaps with authentication. If you think sendmail, exim or postfix are overkill on your workstation, consider using ssmtp or a similar lightweight mail deliver client. -- MC, http://hack.org/mc/
