Email to hotmail or yahoo from Database trigger

Question

Hi all.
I m working on Oracle Developer 6i with Oracle 9i.
OS is Windows XP. My Oracle database is on Samba Server.
I m using Exchange Server as my mail server.
I want to send emails to hotmail, yahoor or any other mail server from my company.
I have already create a database procedure to send mails within my company.
I m using following procedure.
PROCEDURE send_mail(p_to IN VARCHAR2,
p_subject IN VARCHAR2,
p_body IN VARCHAR2,
p_from IN VARCHAR2)
IS
con utl_smtp.connection;
l_log_err varchar2(4000);
PROCEDURE send_header(name IN VARCHAR2, header IN VARCHAR2) is
BEGIN
utl_smtp.write_data(con,name||': '||header||chr(13)||chr(10));
END;
BEGIN
con := utl_smtp.open_connection(hd_parameter.setting('MAILSVR'));
utl_smtp.helo(con,hd_parameter.setting('DOMAIN'));
utl_smtp.mail(con, p_from);
utl_smtp.rcpt(con, p_to);
utl_smtp.open_data(con);
send_header('From', 'Help Desk System');
send_header('To', p_to);
send_header('Subject', p_subject);
utl_smtp.write_data(con,chr(13)||chr(10)||p_body);
utl_smtp.close_data(con);
utl_smtp.quit(con);
EXCEPTION
WHEN utl_smtp.transient_error or utl_smtp.permanent_error THEN
BEGIN
utl_smtp.quit(con);
EXCEPTION
WHEN utl_smtp.transient_error or utl_smtp.permanent_error THEN
Null;
END;

l_log_err := sqlerrm;
insert into mail_log_error
values(sysdate, 'Failed to send mail due to the following error:'||l_log_err);
END;
