asp_web_howto thread: I need help w/ email sending
Message #1 by "Monique Angelich" <mangelich@m...> on Fri, 24 Aug 2001 19:15:41 -0400

I need to send an email without using an installed asp object, and I
have no way of finding out the server configurations.
A friend of mine is getting help from me to write a simple email sending
program, but the hosting company she is trying to work with is not
pleased at HER doing the development rather than them.
Is it POSSIBLE to send an email without an installed program?
HELP!!!
Moe

No. That said, a component called CDONTS is provided by Microsoft with IIS
v4 and v5. It requires the MS SMTP server to be installed though. You could
try instantiating a CDONTS.NewMail object, and if that works, the the
hosting company has installed it.
Cheers

Moe,
Do you know if the hosting company has SMTP running?
If so, you can use CDONTS to send email. I do.

CDONTS example of email:
'Dim our var.
Dim ObjSendMail
'Create mail object.
Set ObjSendMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
'Pass in values with a variable (var)
ObjSendMail.From = var
ObjSendMail.To = var
ObjSendMail.Cc = var
ObjSendMail.Bccs = var
ObjSendMail.Importance = var
ObjSendMail.Subject = var
ObjSendMail.Body = var
'Send the mail.
ObjSendMail.Send
'Set to nothing to free resources.
Set ObjSendMail = Nothing
Hope this helps,
Mark

Hello.
I know nothing about the hosting company, I am helping a friend, and they
won't tell her squat. They sound very unprofessional, and she is afraid to
let me call and ask them. I am working blind on this one. ::: sigh ::: can
you imagine a hosting company with a non-disclosure attitude?

You should bear in mind that most hosting companies disable CDONTS and
provide another mail object to PREMIUM subscribers. CDONTS may or may not
work for you, but a quick sample script would let you know.
