You've probably found the answer by now, but depending on your Win2k version you'll need to use CDONTS or CDOSYS to send the email. If I remember correctly, CDONTS is probably the one that works with Win2k Pro.

<%
Dim objCDO
Set objCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objCDO.To = "recipient@domain.#*$!"
objCDO.From = "[e-mail]"
objCDO.Subject = "Subject Line"
objCDO.Body = "Body"
objCDO.Send
%>

So, essentially you'd want to create a recordset and substitute database field values for whichever parts of the message vary.
