Passing a MailMessage object to a web service

Can anyone please tell me if it's possible to pass a System.Web.Mail.MailMessage object to a ASP.NET Web Service? Maybe using XML Serialization / Deserialization? I've been asked to investigate the possibility of building a front-end web page which captures MailMessage properties such To, From Subject, Attachments etc, builds a MailMessage object, passes the MailMessage object to a web service, the web service then sends the message via the Smtp.Send method.

Any assistance gratefully received. Thanks!

Certainly this can be done using web services. WCF would make this extremely simple. Just create a new WCF web service and the method would look something like this:

[WebMethod]
public bool ReceiveMailMessage(MailMessage mm)
{
   //Send the MM
   return true;  
}
