I'm using the following code to auto generate an email to retrieve a forgotten password. The script doesn't send to AOL or Yahoo emails. I can't figure out why. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

<%
Dim rsEmail__strEmail
rsEmail__strEmail = "1"
If (Request.Form("Email") <> "") Then
  rsEmail__strEmail = Request.Form("Email")
End If
%>
<%
Dim rsEmail
Dim rsEmail_numRows

Set rsEmail = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rsEmail.ActiveConnection = MM_DBConn_STRING
rsEmail.Source = "SELECT Email,Pswrd FROM dbo.tblLogin WHERE Email = '" +
Replace(rsEmail__strEmail, "'", "''") + "'"
rsEmail.CursorType = 0
rsEmail.CursorLocation = 2
rsEmail.LockType = 1
rsEmail.Open()

rsEmail_numRows = 0

IF rsEmail.EOF THEN
Response.Write "<p>" & "That email address was not found in our database.
Please click back on your browser and enter the email address you registered
with." & "</p>"
ELSE
DIM strPassword
strPassword = rsEmail("Pswrd")

sch = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/"
mailbody = "Here is your login password: " & rsEmail__strEmail

Set cdoConfig = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")

With cdoConfig.Fields
.Item(sch & "sendusing") = 2 ' cdoSendUsingPort
.Item(sch & "smtpserver") = "mail.softscience.com"
.update
End With

Set cdoMessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message")

With cdoMessage
Set .Configuration = cdoConfig
.From = "[email protected]"
.To = rsEmail__strEmail
.Subject = "Password-Request"
.HTMLBody = mailbody
.Send
End With

Set cdoMessage = Nothing
Set cdoConfig = Nothing
Response.Write "<p>" & "Your password has been sent to your email address."
& "</p>"
%>
<%
rsEmail.Close()
Set rsEmail = Nothing
End If
%>

Thanks.

Please disregard...I figured it out. Thanks.

If you could, Can you post on how you figured that out?

Hi Vijay,

The problem was related to AOL and Yahoo and not recognizing my testing server IP. I don't have the SMTP virtual server setup on my testing server. The testing server would still send out to the remote server by default, but the original IP is coming from my server. Once I uploaded to the remote production server it worked fine for both AOL and Yahoo.

Interestingly, I did get an auto-response from AOL saying that the email was on hold for delivery and after about a day it was kicked back to me as undeliverable. That told me that the email was actually sending to AOL, but just not making past their security for spoofing and preventing spam.
Thanks.
