Hi,
I would recommend that you use the examples that ships with LabVIEW 7.1, e.g the "EMail with Data.vi", or the "E-Mail Notification.vi". Both are located in C:\Programfiler\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\examples\comm\smtpex.llb\. Or
The only "tricky" part is to find the name of your mail server; you can get this from your IT Administrator.
