Hi Rekha,
If u have knowledge of Java Class APIs, I suggest using the JavaMail API and the Jakarta Commons FileUpload class for ur mission.

Hope this helps !!

Keep me posted.

'First, initialize the JMail program...

Set JMail = Server.CreateObject("JMail.Message")

'Next, define your SMTP server & port address...
'(note that you just need to use the following line

JMail.ISOEncodeHeaders = False

JMail.From = "[email protected]"
JMail.FromName = "Test Message"

'The Subject property allows you to fill in the subject of the
'e-mail message you're sending...

JMail.Subject = "This is a Test of JMail"

'To add recipients to the e-mail message, you use the AddRecipient
'method. Note that it does not require the use of an = sign!

JMail.AddRecipient Request.Form("Email")

'You can keep adding recipients until you're done...
'JMail.AddRecipient "[email protected]"
'JMail.AddRecipient "[email protected]"
' Get the recipients mailbox from a form (note the lack of an equal sign).
'JMail.AddRecipient Request.Form("Email")
'You can also add recipients to what would normally be the CC:
'and BCC: fields of your e-mail, as follows (respectively)...
'JMail.AddRecipientCC "[email protected]"
'JMail.AddRecipientBCC "[email protected]"
'If you want to make the To: address more personal, you can
'use the AddRecipientEx method to add not only the person's
'e-mail address, but their name, too...
'JMail.AddRecipientEx "[email protected]", "Sparky O'Malley"
'The body of your message can be set in a number of ways. To
'set the body explicitly, you can just do something like this...

JMail.Body = "This is a test Email from a J-Mail Script."

'Or you might need to add text later after a generic greeting,
'in which case you'd append text to the body like this...

JMail.Body = JMail.Body & " Have a nice day!"

'You can also append text with the AppendText method...again,
'note the lack of an = sign here because you're using a method,
'not setting a property
'JMail.AppendText "Have a nice day!"
'If you have some text stored in a file, you can also use the
'contents of that file to set the body of the message, as
'follows...
'JMail.AppendBodyFromFile "c:\webserver\yourdomain\htdocs\mytext.txt"
'If your message is really important, you may want to set the
'message priority with the Priority property. When setting this
'property, remember that 1 is highest priority (urgent) and
'5 is lowest priority...

JMail.Priority = 1

'You can even add attachments to your message. As with the
'AddRecipient method, this does not use = signs and can be called
'as many times as you have attachments...
'JMail.AddAttachment "c:\webserver\yourdomain\htdocs\pix\myphoto.jp g"
'JMail.AddAttachment "c:\webserver\yourdomain\htdocs\faq\faq1.txt"
'Once you've set everything up, it's just a matter of sending the
'message...

JMail.Send(Request.Form("SMTP"))

%>

JMail Example
The following example sends a plain-text email that contains an attachment.

<%
    ' Declare Variables
    Dim objJMail, strFilePath
    ' Get absolute path for file we want to attach to email.
    strFilePath = Server.MapPath("files/eternal-youth.pdf")
    ' Create instance of JMail Object
    Set objJMail = Server.CreateObject("JMail.SMTPMail")
    ' JMail SMTP on server
    objJMail.ServerAddress = "mail.gimmick-prodo.co.uk"
    ' JMail ContentType
    objJMail.ContentType = "text/plain"
    ' Senders email address
    objJMail.Sender = "[email protected]"
    ' Senders name
    objJMail.SenderName= "Gimmick Productions Ltd"
    ' Recipients email address
    objJMail.AddRecipient("[email protected]")
    ' Email Priority (3 = Normal)
    objJMail.Priority = 3
    ' Email Title
    objJMail.Subject = "Discover the secret to eternal youth"
    ' Email Body
    objJMail.Body = "Send $50 and we'll send you the secret to eternal youth!"
    ' Attach file to email
    objJMail.AddAttachment(strFilePath)
    ' Send Email
    objJMail.Execute()
    ' Close JMail Object and Destroy it to release memory
    objJMail.Close()
    Set objJMail = Nothing
%>In the above example, the Server object's MapPath method is used to return the absolute path for the file to attach.

For an HTML-based email, the ContentType property would have a value of "text/html" and the content of the Body property would contain HTML mark-up.

Thanks for your reply, But I need java code i have only java 1.3 installed on my server

Hello,

As a previous poster said, you need the JavaMail API which you can get at

http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/

There was a sample app included with the version I downloaded, there is a java forum dedicated to JavaMail at

http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jsp?forum=43

There are tutorials available also.

Hey rekha, that's asking for spoon feeding.
Well I recently developed an application in JSP to implement mass mailing.

I cannot post the code here as it's confidential.

However, I can mail u the code at ur email id if u wish 2 have it immediately. Give me a reminder at [email protected].

Else, u can go through the coding given at the java.sun.com's explanation of the JavaMail API. It has extensive details of using the API including the MIME-attachment part.

Keep me posted.

Cheers !!

Sherbir

I hope the sample codes are much more enough to proceed with
