You can't use POP3 to send e-mail. POP is a protocol for receiving e-mail.
Here's some code that works with most popular e-mail clients.
<vfp_code>
DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute ;
IN SHELL32.DLL ;
INTEGER nWinHandle,;
STRING cOperation,;
STRING cFileName,;
STRING cParameters,;
STRING cDirectory,;
INTEGER nShowWindow

lcEmailAddress = "someb...@somewhere.com"
lcCCAddress = "someb...@somewhere.com"
lcSubject = "This is a test message"
lcMessageBody = "Hello, this is a message body."


ShellExecute(0, "", "mailto:" + lcEmailAddress + "?Subject=" + lcSubject + ;
"&CC=" + lcCCAddress + "&body=" + ;
lcMessageBody, "", "",1)
</vfp_code>
