Imar,

I have modified my code based on the URL given by you. Here is the new code, but it is not working. Could you please have a look at it? And also what is the use of this parameter ".Item(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort", because i have to try this in my local exchange server.


Dim objCDO
Dim iConf
Dim Flds

Const cdoSendUsingPort = 2

Set objCDO = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set iConf = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")

Set Flds = iConf.Fields

With Flds
.Item(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
.Item(cdoSMTPServer) = <exchangeservername>
.Item(cdoSMTPServerPort) = 25
.Item(cdoSMTPconnectiontimeout) = 10
.Update

End With

Set objCDO.Configuration = iConf

objCDO.From = "[email protected]"
objCDO.To = "[email protected]"
objCDO.Subject = "test"
objCDO.TextBody = "test"
objCDO.Send

'Cleanup
Set ObjCDO = Nothing
Set iConf = Nothing
Set Flds = Nothing

Why did you leave out all the stuff with ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver")?

You can take the example as is, replace just the bolded parts and it should work. If I were you, I'd try that first, and if it works, then change it to suit your situation.

Imar,

If I use the below mentioned link for SMTP server. Is there any problem ? Could you please explain me what is the use of this parameter ?

("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver")?

This parameter sets the SMTP server you want to use. The mail object will try to deliver your e-mail message at that server. This is where you should specify your Exchange server. AFAIK, that should work.

Did you try the example fro the article I showed you? If you just change the three bold parts in the code (and leave everything as is), it should work.....

Oh, and the "link" is not really a link. It's just a namespace for the smtpserver parameters. Something to make the param unique...

Is there any harm in using that link ? I have tried with that link, it is working fine. And I have also scheduled it. Thanks a lot for your help in this regard. Thanks.........

No, there is no harm, because like I said, it's not a link, but merely a means to make the smtp param globally unique.
As you can see, the link is enclosed in quotes which makes it an ordinary string.

Internally, this text is used to set and get the name of the SMTP server, but it will never go out on the Internet to reach the schemas.microsoft.com site.

Cheers,

Imar
