Some things to remember for .Net:

• NEVER use Server.CreateObject() in .Net code. Ever.
• NEVER Dim a variable without giving it an explicit type. Except for new Option Infer linq types

Dim smtp As New System.Net.SmtpClient()
Dim message As New System.Net.MailMessage(EmailFrom, EmailTo, Subject, Body)
smtp.Send(message)
