I am trying to send mail using mapi through ASP. I am able to do so. But 
when i try to send html mail, all the tags are rendered as text. I need to 
be able to send HTML mail using MAPI because my clients have restrictions 
on the smtp server. Besides when I try to send mail using CDO.Message I 
get the 'transport failed to connect to the server' error for emails 
across domains in the intranet as well as for external emails.
I have been reading cdo live and got the idea that I might need to use the 
CDO html rendering library. Also I would be able to access the cdohtml.dll 
via OWA. But could u help me with the coding part? How would the code 
change? Currently I use the following code:

Function Mail(strTo, strFrom, strSubject, strBody)

Dim objSess, objFBMess, objRecips, bstrProfileInfo, 
cStrServer,cStrMailbox, objRenderApp   ' Our CDO object
		
cStrServer        = ExchangeServerName
cStrMailbox       = strFrom
	
bstrProfileInfo = cStrServer & vbLf & cStrMailbox 

Set objSess = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")		
objSess.Logon "", "", False, True, 0, True, bstrProfileInfo
	
Set objFBMess = objSess.Outbox.Messages.Add
objFBMess.Subject = strSubject
objFBMess.Text = strBody
	
Set objRecips = objFBMess.Recipients
Set objRecips = objFBMess.Recipients.Add
objRecips.Add (strTo)	
objRecips.Resolve
	
objFBMess.Send
objSess.Logoff
	
End Function

Hope someone can help me out.

Add this:

    objFBMess.BodyFormat=0
    objFBMess.MailFormat=0

Where 0 is HTML

Cheers,
Aaron
