Sending Email Through Lotus Notes From Silverlight

We have a LOB application written in silverlight that currently shoots emails out through Outlook via:

Dim outlook = AutomationFactory.CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
...

This works great when the user has elevated permissions in the application. My question is, does anyone know how we go about doing the same with Lotus Notes? We have a customer that is requesting it.

Thanks

If you install IBM Notes on the Server, where the application is running, you could use COM to to similar stuff to what you do with Outlook.

The more "stable" or "professional" way would be to send the mail via SMTP to a SMTP server (IBM Domino, Exchange, postfix, ...).

You can use Visual Basic to connect to Lotus Notes. See this IBM technote for an example: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21178583.

There are other ways such as using Java but in your case using Visual Basic sounds like the easiest way.

Can't LN use a SMTP interface? I don't know if IBM or third party has an adapter for Exchange, but they probably do.
