Email And SPAM
I had a PHP script written to send email and it had a lot of SPAM issues.
With an ASP email script, what can I do to make the script secure from spammers?

Someone probably have asked this question already about this topic earlier but i am just unable find it or otherwise i am being lazy to dig into this forum. how to avoid spam while sending bulk of emails, i am trying to create a tool which would send emails to multiple recipients at one given time, It would nice to have your expertise comments on this topic. I just want to Avoid Email Filters that prevent responsible emails. is there any workable solution to this problem ?
View Replies View RelatedI've recently had my ASP site attacked by these stupid bots and have tried a captcha protection, but it doesn't help.
Here's the problem:
I have a form where people send an enquiry to a client from my database (over 5000). After hitting the submit button, an email is posted to the client, a copy is sent to us and the info is published to a database for record / stat keeping.
I have put the captcha protection in the form, but although the tests show that the captcha form works, the emails are still sent off, therefore allowing the bot attacks.
There must be a gap I can plug with the captcha before the email is posted off or info sent to the database.
I have a formchecker running which forces required fields, and that works fine. I'd like the captcha to work the same. Before the form goes to the confirmation page, it must validate the captcha.
What can I do?
The spam I am getting has a bunch of bogus links for viagra and other meds.The bot just fills out a questionnaire and send it.They're all filtered to my trash folder and I'm going to try to stop it with a server side asp validation but I wonder what they are trying to accomplish in the first place.

I have a website with a Guessbook section. Lately I noticed someone copy and pasted a long http address to promote viagra.. I believe he simply copy and paste the whole link into the text input field and submit several times. It created multiple entries in my guessbook.
How can I prevent this? I was thinking if it is possible for me to write some code to disable people using the control-p to paste text in my text input field.. Can I really do that? What other options do I have?
I'm looking for sample code that will require a use to enter a code from a scued image format.
I'm sure you've seen them before where the image is barely readable by a human and the user has to enter the code correctly to submit the form.
I'm looking for ASP code and NOT ASP.NET code as I am supporting a legacy site.
Im running a simple mail system program which emails newsletters to a database list of 3000+ users.
The program loops through a database containing the emails and sends them out using ASPEmail.
My question is, is there some way i can validate each email address so that if there are invalid characters e.g. the space in "blah @blah.com"
it will skip the record and continue the loop.
At the moment i have a working program however, whenever the program comes across an invalid email address it stops at that record and prevents the program from emailing any further.
I am having a problem formatting an email message which comes from a form.
I am currently having difficulty with the <br> tag which I am using for line spaces within my email. I am getting an expected statement error message which is pointing to the line which is underlined below. I can't think what is causing this.
The code for my processing page is below:-
1. I want users to type in their email address on a textfield, and after users press the "Submit" button. The info will automatically go to another person's email to receive a compliment, suggestion, etcetera.
2. Another is how to include the message written on a textarea of a form with the ASP code supplied below: Code:
how to write to check verification valid email thru nslookup or mx record or dns record. Is it possible to do that. Is there any tutorial from sitepoint, previously found it but i lost the link.
example to check assume test@domain.com is not a real email, abc@domain.com is real email
how do u check it.
i used the following script but it won't send the email. any suggestions why?
<%
Dim TBdy
Dim MyCDO
CR = Chr(13)
Set MyCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
MyCDO.From = "person@something.org"
MyCDO.To = "allstar@aol.com"
MyCDO.Subject = "collegebound info"
TBdy = Request.Form("cb_name")
MyCDO.Body = TBdy
MyCDO.Importance = 1 (Normal)
MyCDO.Send
Set MyCDO = nothing
%>
Just starting to play with scripts, and need a little guidance. I want to check to make sure that the email addresses users enter in a form are identical before it will allow them to submit. here's what i have:
the variable for the second email address is EmailFrom2
'validation
Dim validationOK
validationOK=true
If (Trim(EmailFrom)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("emailerror.htm?" & EmailFrom)
If (Trim(Name)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("nameerror.htm?")
If (Trim(CityState)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("citystateerror.htm?")
If (Trim(SchoolName)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("schoolnameerror.htm?")
here is the script i use:
Set myMail=server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
myMail.Subject="subject"
myMail.From="me"
myMail.To=request.form("email")
myMail.TextBody="hello"
myMail.Send
set myMail=nothing
this script sends emails to some addresses but not others--and its based on the email service it's sending to. for instance, hotmail email addresses get the email, but mail.com email addresses dont get the email. i have tried sending it to other email hosts, too, and still, some work, some don't. what is going on here?
I am using CDONTS component to send email in ASP.
The code is some thing like this:
Dim Mail
Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.Newmail")
mail.From = "abc@hotmail.com"
mail.to = "xyz@hotmail.com"
mail.subject = "Test Email Subject"
mail.body = "This is Email body message"
mail.send
Now the question is that this code will use the Default Virtual SMTP Server in IIS, but I want to use my ISP's SMTP server. please tell me how to do this. I have used my ISP's email server in Outlook express and it is working fine. Please do not suggest to use "CDO" or "CDOSYS" to use for sending emails because I must have to use "CDONTS".
has anyone got a function or subroutine which will remove blank out or remove email addresses.
i've wrote a function which will remove valid email addresses, it's pseudo addresses such as "blah @ blah.com" or "blah_at_blah_dot_com" or "blah_at_blah_._com"
the function is basically to stop users posting an email address in a message.
I've created an com+ application for sending emails with multiple attachments.The component looks like this:
Public Function SendMail3(toAddr, whoAddr, docSubj, docMsg, ByVal docType As Integer, Optional cc = "", Optional bcc = "", Optional sFolder = "", Optional user = "")
On Error GoTo MailErr
Set oFlds = oConf.Fields
oFlds(cdoSendUsingMethod) = cdoSendUsingPort
oFlds(cdoSMTPServer) = SMTPSrvr
oFlds(cdoSMTPServerPort) = SMTPPrt
oFlds(cdoSMTPAuthenticate) = cdoBasic
oFlds.Update
Set oMail = New CDO.Message
oMail.From = whoAddr
oMail.To = toAddr
If (cc <> "") Then
oMail.cc = cc
If (bcc <> "") Then
oMail.bcc = bcc
If oFSO.FolderExists(sFolder) Then
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(sFolder)
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
If InStr(oFile.Name, "_" & user) > 0 Then
oMail.AddAttachment oFile.Path
FileSize = Format((FileLen(oFile) / 1024) / 1024)
SumSize = SumSize + FileSize
oFSO.DeleteFile (oFile)
End If
Next
End If
End If
End If
If ((docType Mod 2) = 0) Then
oMail.TextBody = docMsg
Else:
oMail.HTMLBody = docMsg
End If
If (SumSize > 10) Then
ErrorStrMail = "Attachment size too large!"
GoTo MailFlee
End If
oMail.Subject = docSubj
Set oMail.Configuration = oConf
oMail.Send
MailFlee:
Exit Function
MailErr:
ErrorStrMail = Err.Number & ":" & Err.Description
Resume MailFlee
End Function
When I call this component from an asp page,I don't get any error,but the mail doesn't work.....did I do something wrong?

i have a requirement of sending an email thru ASP, I am using Interdev to
develop the asp
page to send the mail, i am using windows XP & IIS 5.0 version.
i am using CDONTS, i downloaded the dll and have registered it in registry,
my problem is, code seems to be working and email is not being sent, i have
tried out serveral things which
were listed in websites but nothing i got right. all the mails are being
stored in queue folder in
Inetpub/mailroot folder. i doubt whether the norton antivirus which i have
installed is blocking or any settings i have missed out in SMTP properties
or in IIS settings.
How come my image is not included sent through email Code:
.
.
.
mbody=mbody&"<br><br><table width='200' border='1'>"
mbody=mbody&"<tr>"
mbody=mbody&"<th scope='col' bgcolor='#009900'><img class='logo' src='images/logo.gif' alt=''/></th>"
mbody=mbody&"</table>"
