If you google "SMTP C++" you get some hits, but I don't know if any of them are any good.

Have a look at this thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/58210/c-smtp-example
It gives you some of the nitty-gritty and some possibilities.

is it possible to tell a website to do certain keystrokes (say assign your own key board shortcuts) and do it that way?

I'm sure it's possible, but I'm not sure how you would implement it (aside from the idea that it probably requires using Win32 API).

If you're looking for the ability to interact with webpages you can do it somewhat more directly with something like libcurl via "GET"/"POST" commands.
