Message oMsg = new Message();

oMsg.From = SendEmailAddres s;
oMsg.To = userEmail;
oMsg.Subject = "Prospect Reminder";
oMsg.HTMLBody = EmailContent.To String();
oMsg.TextBody = EmailContent.To String();

oFields["http://schemas.microso ft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing"].Value
= 1;
oFields["http://schemas.microso ft.com/cdo/configuration/sendemailaddres s"].Value
