Sending emails to Contact

Hi All,

I need to send an email on completion of form registration. I tried to do this using business rules but unfortunately my requirement deals with custom objects which cannot be used in biz rules.

I tried using Public Mail API but instance is of Feb 2014 version and wont be able to avail Public Mail API services(because it is enabled after Aug 2014 version).

Is there a way to send emails to Contact OOTB without above services? I had following things in mind as a work around - Need to know if these are feasible or valid?

1. Use of SendEmailingtoContact via Web Services: Could I use cURL and invoke SendEmailingtoContact() for sending emails?
2. White-listing of SMTP emails: Some of the basic features of SMTP mails should be neabled. Thinking of raising a request to Oracle team to enable this. Is this a good idea?

Please share your thoughts.
