Hi Luka,

As I have already told you the senders email address, irrespective of 
being a valid email or not, it has to go. I have checked it out and it is 
working fine over here for me. Well if its still not working for you, then 
do have a talk with your Internet Service Provider for help. 

By valid email format, I have explained already the same to you, it should 
contain a domain name, an @ symbol and a dot with a 2 or 3 letter 
extention.

HTH

Hi Vinay!

First i would like to thank for your help! Well, what i would like to know 

is... i put valid email format to the form (FROM property), but it doesn't 

exist..and the mail doesn't come to the specified address(TO property). If 

i input existing mail to the form (FROM property)..the thing works. Any 
ideas? Thanks!

Luka



> Hi Luka,

Well as far as I do know about the working of CDONTS, no mail will be sent 

if the TO address or the FROM address is wrong. So you will have to verify 

the address clearly before submitting the page, do write a javascript for 
the same.

Its not necessary for the email id to be existing, but it should be 
entered in the correct format. I mean to say if the user has entered 
something like,

asdf@a...
ljkasdfoi@k... 

The mail will go. But if the user has entered, 

asdf@l...
asdf@l...

The mail will not go.

So you will have to check whether the entered mailid is in the correct 
format or not. .... tht will do the work.
