don't believe after 3 emails that I have yet reached a human. Word for word,
I keep receiving the same idiotic responses.

VC# Standard Edition has access to all of the .NET framework, but there are
no FTP/Telnet/E-mail components within the framework, as far as I recall.
Microsoft have their own newsgroups too (on msnews.microsoft.com), where
you could've got this question answered in no time. :-)

Indy for .NET should work with it, though.

I can confirm that, having used Indy components in VC# SE.

Funny, that's exactly what I get when I do reach a human in one of those
offshore support centers!
