asp_cdo thread: CDONTS


Message #1 by "Alex Shiell, ITS, EC, SE" <alex.shiell@s...> on Thu, 15 Mar 2001 16:20:58 -0000
I'm trying to use CDONTS.  At the moment I'm just trying to send messages to

myself.  All messages go straight to the badmail folder.  

The email address is correct.  The SMTP service is running.  



Is there any other configuration that needs to be done?



Any ideas?

OK, fixed it now...



it didn't work because I did not supply a valid Reply-To address



as its an automated message I don't want users to reply to it... any way I

can do this (apart from putting a fake address in Reply-To)?

Alex

I'm not sure about how this works, but I had a similar problem and a fake

reply-to address didn't work due to anti-spam software on the recipient's

servers, this seems to be especially true if recipients email is hosted on

things like hotmail and freeserve. Apparently, the email addresses are

checked to

see if they are deliverable. Sorry it's not much help.

As there doesn't seem to be anyway round this, we've created a mailbox to

receive the replies
