asp_web_howto thread: send email via a remote SMPT server


Message #1 by "Philippa" <philippa.paton@o...> on Fri, 20 Apr 2001 11:35:10
Is it possible to use pure code to send email via a web smtp server eg. 

hotmail, or does the SMTP server need to be local?



I want to avoid using COM or CDONTS if possible.



Many thanks

Not server side... but you can do it client side with Outlook activex

objects, although it would only work for users with IE5 and Outlook

installed
