Hello again (Frederik are you still with me?!)



I was wondering how one could actually send e-mails from an aspx page 

using

the .net runtime framework. In the oldschool regular asp world, one 

would

instantiate a "cdonts.newmail" object  (or using the excellent jmail

component, for instance) and use that as a connection to a smtp server 

(the

former would often be a local smtp server).



The docs doesn't say much about smtp services so I figure I'd have to 

use

the good old COM object in order to send e-mails from aspx pages?! Or

perhaps I should write the plumbing myself (using the System.Net 

assembly

which would be cumbersome) !?



Thanks in advance!

It=27s simple to doing this in asp+=2E

You use the smtpmail and mailmessage classes from the System=2EWeb=2EUtil

 



namespace=2E

You need to install/setup a Virtual SMTP Server in the Internet Service 



Manager=2E



After this you simple write=3A



objMail =3D New smtpmail

ObjMessage =3D New MailMessage



ObjMessage=2EFrom =3D =22Fredrik=22

ObjMessage=2ETo =3D =22fredrik=2Enormen=40endero=2Ecom=22

ObjMessage=2ESubject =3D =22My subject=22

ObjMessage=2EBodyFormat =3D 1

Dim strBodyMail =3D =22I=27ve got mail=22



ObjMessage=2EBody =3D strBodyMail

objMail=2Esend(ObjMessage)



I hope this will help you=2E
