I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this question, but I'm creating the email in ASP so I'm sure it will do...
How do you embed images into emails? I've created HTML emails that lookup images on a server when viewed but I'm trying to write a script where an image is sent with the email as the image isn't available online (only on the intranet).
I need to create HTML e-mail from an ASP program that includes embedded
images that go along with the e-mail, e.g. logos, product image, etc. Is
there a technique in HTML that people use to embed images? I know that when
I insert an image into an e-mail in Outlook, and I look at the HTML behind
it, there is a funny tak CID:
IMG hspace=0 src="cid:027301c29d8e$da6ba600$0afea8c0@MYMAIN" align=baseline
border=0>
Any clues?
In my code to send email from VBScript, I use standard CDOSYS code similar to
the following:
With oMsg
Set .Configuration = oCon
.To = """Admin"" <admin@mycompany.com>"
.From = """Joe Admin"" <jadmin@mycompany.com>"
.Subject = "Hey You!"
.TextBody = "Service(s) have failed!"
.Send
End With
I understand the use of the .HTMLBody property, as well as the
..CreateMHTMLBody method. So I know I can create an ASP or HTML page, and
pass it to the .CreateMHTMLBody method, to get the images truly embedded, so
the email source contains the cid:blahblahblah references to the images,
which is key to getting the email to display properly in web-based mail
clients.
My question is... how do I achieve the same thing (embed the images) that
the .CreateMHTMLBody method does automatically, manually, so I can also
inject values passed from a form postback into the email?
It seems that I shouldn't use the .CreateMHTMLBody method. It seems that I
need to manually accomplish what it accomplishes automatically, so I have
more granular control. But I have found no thorough online resources that
explain exactly how. I have thoroughly looked at all of the SDK information
pertaining to CDOSYS, and I am still in dire need of an example for
VBScript...
It seems that the .AddRelatedBodyPart method is part of the answer, but when
I use it to embed the images and fill .HTMLBody, rather than using the
..CreateMHTMLBody method, I do not see cid:blahblahblah in the email source,
and the images do not display properly in web-based mail clients such as
Outlook Web Access.
I really need some help on this. It would also appear that I am not alone.
I find plenty of questions on this, but no answers. Can anyone help with a
working VBScript example that embeds images into an email in a fashion that
yields the cid:blahblahblah in the email source, for the image references,
that does not use the .CreateMHTMLBody method to do the work automatically?
I have an asp page where I am generating an email but I need to have a link in the email body. Here is my code, I cannot get anything to work. I keep getting missing end of statement. Code:
<%
TheText2 = TheText2 & "HalCAP Request Number = " & rsOID("oid") & Chr(13)&Chr(10) & Comments
TheText2 = TheText2 & "<html><body><a href=""admin_31.asp?reqid=<%=quoteoid%>"">View Request</a></body></html>"
%>
if I have a block of HTML which I can insert into a file, I know there a PHP way of doing it just don't know the VB way to do it, anyone come accross this?

I have a vbs script that retrives some stuff from AD via LDAP. Works great, and does exactly what I want it to go. The 'guts' of the app is Code:
Set objOU = GetObject (strOU)
Where strOU is something like "LDAP://OU=Users,OU=OT...." etc. Like I say this works fine and generates a nice report.
However I have to (I don't know why, but it's an insist) that this script has to be an html page. A stand alone one at that (ie to be run form a users workstation).
I rewrote the code to output to the html page, emebeded it in <script language="VBscript"> etc but the GetObject bit isn't working. I get :

This means i cant use something like ASPEmail as not all ASP servers have this.
So what do i use? Someone suggested to me CDONTS but then said you have to set up the server or something.Do all web servers have this pre configured.
Is there any way we can send off an email from a web hosting server that does not support CDONTS and cannot register any components to their server. They have no SMTP server as well.
IS there any web site that supports any one of these for FREE or better yet is there any other way to send off an email without CDONTS and components? Is it possible to like redirect to another mail with just scripting?
Appreciate any response to this matter.

I am working on a piece of software that needs to store email data in a SQL server table. Been flicking around and it looks like the ASP mail components are a good way to go.

I have built a system for a hospital where users can sign up for classes that the hospital offers. Now, I want to be able to send the users a reminder email a day or so before the event/class. In the database, I have all the user's info in one table. Another table holds the registrations with keys to the user table and the key to the table that has a listing of the classes.
How do I now go about automatically looking through the class table to find out if there is a class in the next 24 hours, and then send an email to all the people registered for that class?
Has anyone had or heard of IIS not passing emails or SSL connections, thereby disconnecting or making the server useless?

I have an exchange server, that I sometimes use to perform mail shots to
clients on our database, these can be upwards of 1000 at a time.
As we don't want different clients to see who we are working with we put
these mailshots in the bcc field of the mails.
This can sometimes cause a problem as we are getting alot of mails bounced
back. I would like to write a script to have these emails sent
out individually using the to: field of the mail. I have googled for
examples of doing this but haven't found anything useful yet

I need to send a set of Emails from my application (reminders) each month
1st. Is there anyway in ASP scripts to trigger an event to run
automatically? I have no dedicated server, so no DLLs or Scheduler scripts
can be used. Also adding the trigger script in the application object may
not send emails in time, as we have not enough visitors to that application.
Is there any way other than 'Clicking a Send button'
is there a way of sending emails directly from iis without using an external

Im searching around how to send emails but it doesnt seem to be working for me. They stay in the queue and research tells me that a firewall might be blocking them from being sent.
This is in the events log: "The remote server did not respond to a connection attempt."
Is there a way to send the email via the user's mail program?

I just have a question though. The app will have to send an email with sensitive data (cc info). The pages dealing dealing with these info are secured (SSL) but what about the email? Can you encrypt it? Is it safe to send an email just like that or should you do something to secure your data? If yes, what are the measueres to be taken?
I wonder how I would go about an email tracker using ASP. I need this for the database to capture all unsubscribe requests. For instance, someone emails "unsubscribe@domain" I should be able to catch that email, get who emailed it and record that to my unsubscribe table.

View Replies View RelatedI have an application which sends out emails in HTML format. I have a problem when I am trying to display images in the email (name of the image file is taken from database).

I have about 5000 emails in my database. I wrote a basic script that sends
an email to all of those email addresses. Usually I have to break it up and
only send 300-400 at a time so my script does not timeout.
I know I can up my timeout to 45 minutes if I needed to, so that they could
all be sent at once, but I do not believe that is a wise decision.
Does any know of any other ways to do this more efficiently?
