asp_cdo thread: How can I use MS Outlook Express for mails ?


Message #1 by "Krishna K Khatri" <zipcn046@i...> on Fri, 24 Aug 2001 12:10:36
How can I use MS Outlook Express for sending mails from ASP page. I don't 

know which methods and properties are exposed by MSOE. Can you tell me 

what will be the code (in a skeleton form) for sending the mails from ASP 

page.



I want to do all this with the dial up account, through my ISP.



I want that, if the Internet connection is not alive on the IIS, then the 

ASP page shoul instruct MS Outlook Express to connect to the Internet via 

dial up (the default connection to dial is setup, along with the Username 

and Password) i.e. Modem then all the newly composed mails should be 

delivered to the destination and a notification should be shown to the 

user stating about the delivery report.



In short I want automatic mail transmission from one PC to another mail 

account (list of recipients will be defined in ASP page) using dial up 

account and modem, without the users's intervention.



System is using IIS 4.0 and Windows NT 4.0

Hi Krishna ,



Did you ever find the solution to this problem?  I am trying to do the 

same thing but with a little different configuration.   I am new to ASP 

and trying to figure out how to send emails from my ASP page.  I am 

running Personal Web Server on Windows 98, second edition.  My mail client 

is MS Outlook Express 5.5.  I was trying to run the SendMail.asp page from 

the Active Server Pages 3.0 book, chapter 23.  1999 Wrox Press (red book)



The first line in the code is:

<!-- METADATA TYPE="typelib" FILE="C:\Program Files\Common 

Files\System\Mapi\1033\NT\CDO.dll" -->



Well, obviously this setup is not right for my system since I am running 

Windows 98.  I am wandering what DLL that I need to replace this with to 

make it work.



Any suggestions?
