Are you creating the logfile?... actually, you need to be more specific with
the questions... but, in general, you can generate a log and send it
anywhere you want.

Well, I made a program that would create a log file when it meets a
certain size, I just need it to be sent to a certain email, how can I
achieve that?
Thank you

Use CDOSYS objects (CDO For Windows 2000) to define an email and attach
the log file to it. You will obviously need to provide some parameters
in your application to configure the appropriate SMTP server to use (not
safe hard coding it).

There are a lot of code snippet and ready to use modules available to
send an SMTP mail from any internet connected machine.

However it may not work due to many reasons such as user may not be
connected to the internet directly, instead may be using a proxy or
something. Port access may have been disabled by the firewall and many
such things may restrict you from mailing. On the controry, you should
ask the user to mail the file when you need it so it is on the user to
decide how to mail the file.

If you are still interested in getting the file by mail, request me
for the code snippet and i will provide you code to send a file using
SMTP protocol to your mailbox.
