I'm in agreement with the other folks in this thread that
using established systems mail tools to accomplish what you
are doing is simpler.

If you really need to do the entire project in C you could take
a look at libesmtp -- libESMTP - A Library for Posting Electronic Mail
Or possibly the c-client library bundled with UW imap: UW IMAP software--IMAP Information Center.
