asp_components thread: intelligent email component for thousands of emails
Message #1 by dont worry <aspmailbox@y...> on Mon, 16 Oct 2000 23:21:02 -0700 (PDT)

I'm reading Beginning Components for ASP as I write.
(Problem) I have thousands of emails in a database and
I need to send emails to them all. Asp scripting
through loop cause different promblems.
(Solution)
I'm trying to create a component that takes email
address from my database and sends a message to each
one. Please give me advice on how to delay the loop
or send messages to queue or something that will not
kill the server or lose emails, because the smtp
server cannot keep up. (Syntax for VB 6 would be
great)
Thank you very much for any help.

JMail v4 has a queue function
Alternatively you could look at buying some proper list-server software.
Cheers

Where should the smtp server be? Web server, app
server, or database server?
Why?
How many smtp servers can I have running on one
machine independent of each other?
Thanks

If you're using JMail, then you have to use the Microsoft SMTP server. Why?
Look in the documentation - do some research, the answer will be right in
front of you. You will have the same problem with any other type of
component that does not use sockets to connect to an SMTP server but rather
creates RFC822 compliant SMTP messages as text files.

How many FTP servers can you have running on one machine? As many as you
like
How many Web servers can you have running on one machine? As many as you
like
How many POP3 servers can you have running on one machine? As many as you
like
How many telnet servers can you have running on one machine? As many as you
like
What's the catch? TCP Port numbers. How many TCP port numbers do you have?
As many as you want. How many programs connect to SMTP servers on port 80? I
don't know.
