Mass Email Using CDONTS...how To Get The Emails Into A Delimited Variable
I want to use a simple CDONT mail script to allow the administrator of a site to send an email blast to their users. there are approx 1600 emails in the MS SQL db table. I would like to parse the entire email address column and get a variable that is all the email addresses separated by a comma so that the form picks it up as all the emails in the 'bcc' field as in the eg. below..I know there has to be an easier way but I want to get these guys up and running.
<%
objCDO.To = "Recipient@oursite.org"
objCDO.From = "mailer@oursite.org"
objCDO.bcc = "$variable_of_all_email_addresses"
Dim txtSubject
txtSubject = "Insert comments and case info here"
objCDO.Subject = ""***ATTENTION*** NEW CASE - MISSING CHILD"
objCDO.Body = txtSubject
objCDO.Send
%>

My client does not want to use a listserv. He wants to send 5000+ emails,
once everyday to our members. Our hosting company has agreed to this.
What are my options here?
I know I can write a basic looping SQL script, but that would take
forever....
What about an "email queue" through SQL? But I cannot install any components
on the web server, so what options are there?

I'm given a DB with everyone's particulars including emails which I'm supposed to retrieve all their emails and do a mass reminder email to the individual email addresses.
I don't want to send a email whereby all the email addresses is shown in the email. Can someone give me some ideas as how am I supposed to go about doing it using asp and vb. Is there any working codes I can refer to?

My problem is, when I send e-mail to our members, not all of them are getting them and there is no rhyme or reason. I was thinking of re-writting the program to go through MS Outlook so our Exchange Server will take care of sending it. Then again, probably there is someone who can help me figure out why some e-mail are not getting delivered even though they have valid e-mail addresses. There must just be about 25-35 out of probably close to 2000 members in our mailing list. I am using SMTP do you think it is getting overloaded with delivery? Sometimes they would come back with a delivery delayed notification.
I posted my code because there might be something in my program that does not work for mass e-mail sending and somebody might want to give me a suggestion on handling this matter.
What if I send the e-mail one by one instead of doing a bcc?

I have a test and production environment. The code works fine on test
but behaves erractically in production. The script needs to email people
who are subscribed to a particular service. On test it is a small list
but the list on production is fairly large. Does the CDO object have a
maximum number of people that can be BCCed? I also have email addresses
with hyphens in them, are there special characters, (other than @), that
have to be respected? I have seen some other posting with people having
issues with the CDO object and one of the suggestions is to:
# Try using a SendUsing value of 1 (pickup) instead of 2 (port). E.g.
the following line:
cdoConfig.Fields.Item(sch & "sendusing") = 2
Becomes
cdoConfig.Fields.Item(sch & "sendusing") = 1
What is the difference between these two? The webserver is juts using
the default SMTP server, is it going to work with a setting of
cdoConfig.Fields.Item(sch & "sendusing") = 1? Where are they picking it
up from?

I am testing a mass emailer that I will be sending out this week. I use ASP to read email addresses from a db table which is contains a list of email addresses of those who will receive the email blast. I have included myself to see the results of the test. I noticed when I received the email, the body or content of the email was repeated as many times as there are people in the email list the code was reading from.
Can someone tell me what I did wrong in the code below?

I know this question is stupid. But i need some advice for this. I
am trying to develop a website, which will allow the user send to order form

Can I just to localhost server to test, whether the form can be send
up to the admin's email. Or I must have the Hosting server to do that. Can
Anyone suggest me, how to I test my scripts can be successfully run (at
localhost), before I host it on the Web Servers.

For some reason, the email scripts on my web site can't send emails to
Hotmail accounts. No error is generated, but no email is sent either. I've
done some searching on this matter, and it appears as though I'm not the
only one having this problem, but I have yet to find a solution :(
Below is my CDOSYS script that was *supposed to* resolve the problem by
passing the SMTP server's along with the email, but it doesn't work :(
Have any of you had success with sending emails to Hotmail accounts via CDO?
I don't have control over the server's setup because it's a hosted account...

Basically one of our clients has asked us to save all emails sent to a particular email address. eg.'bruce@almighty.com' to a database.
I don't even have the slightest idea as to how this could be done via ASP on a web server.

I would like to send the same email to every email address that I have in a table.Only complication is that some records have an email address and some don't (some people dont have email addresses.
I had a go and made an array and used the len(email)>0 idea, so that if no email address, skip sending and email. Guess just after some standard code, nothing fancy. The site is on a commercial server running win 2000 .

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".

I'm doing a website for a Japanese client and he needs to send out batch emails to his subscribers every month. So I used CDONTS to create and send the emails.
The problem is when I send out the emails in my company's internal server,everything turns out fine but when I use the external mail server, the Japanese email suject turns garbled. I've been trying to get this done for ages and my deadline is nearing now.

I am trying to send an email using CDONTS, and I am having troubles with newlines. There was a past thread a while back that said to use vbNewLine to insert a break in the message, but I still can't get it to work.
I used vbNewLine, vbCrLf, chr(10) & chr(13) and my text still continues to flow right along. I want to keep it plain text rather than HTML.

Just curious... Some webapps that I develop could be deployed on older NT
systems OR Win2K3...
Is there a simple test for CDO/CDONTs that I can use in code so I could
implement both routines and use the one that's existing on the server?

my CDONTS email isn't sending.. I think the code is set up correctly but I'm not positive. Is there a way to specify a mail server, if necessary? It seems to be going through without a hitch but the emails are never arriving, to any box I send them to. So perhaps our server needs some sort of authentication before permitting outgoing mails, I'm not really sure. Is there a way to check this?
I have our form set up on a standard html page, with a "action=process.asp" command..
here's the process.asp file..
<%
'Option Explicit
Dim objIndexMail
Set objIndexMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objIndexMail.From = Request.Form("email")
objIndexMail.To = "me@myemail.com"
objIndexMail.Cc = "me@myhotmail.com"
objIndexMail.Subject = "New Inquiry from" & Request.Form("parents")
Response.Write("Ready to create body")
objIndexMail.Body = "bunch of body text here"
Response.Write("body Created")
objIndexMail.Send
Response.Write("Sent")
Set objIndexMail = Nothing
Response.Write("Thank You")

it gets to the thank you message every time, but nothing ever arrives in my mailboxes...

I am rather new to cdonts and using email. I am planing an email site, however I am not sure how the email is stored on the server nor do i know how to read it from the server. I would guess that it is stored in a database, if so how would it be populated?

I have a form that needs to handle international characters withing the UTF-8
character set. I have tried all the recommended strategies for getting utf-8
characters from form input to email message and I cannot get it to work. I
need to stay with classic asp for this.
Here are some things I tried:
'CDONTS
Call msg.SetLocaleIDs(65001)
'CDOSYS
msg.HTMLBodyPart.Charset = "utf-8"
I included the following meta tag in the email HTML:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
I also tried modifying the CharSet and CodePage of all involved Request and
Responses.
I was able to Response.Write the form content on post back to the screen and
it was properly rendered. However, none of my efforts can get the email to
render with the correct codebase. I have tried opening the email in Outlook
and Thunderbird. Neither one picks up on the UTF-8 charset meta tag.
