I'm sending out a monthly newsletter to a whole bunch of clients of my company, by using the CDONTS.NewMail Object in ASP. I've added some email addresses of some of my co-workers to my database to see if the message comes out right in their mailboxes.
Most of them received it right, but there were a few cases where, if their Outlook settings were set to the "Rich Text" option in their Mail settings, it came out as scibberish code. Freaked me out!
I was under the impression that by using the CDONTS.NewMail object, and setting the MailFormat and BodyFormat to HTML it should appear right in the receipients inbox. I understand that if it is set to "Plain Text" that it would come out as plain text, but "Rich Text"? And how would I know how many people receives it this way?
In addition to this, I have added the option to receive a Plain Text version of my newsletter, but the problem is that most of the email addresses in my database were manually added, since the newsletter is being sent to selected corporate groups.
Thus, we set all entries to send it as HTML, and if they would like to receive Plain Text, they can update their subscription on our website by clicking a link provided within the distribution.
<% Set Mail=Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") Mail.To="usama_1987@hotmail.com" Mail.From="usama_1987@hotmail.com" Mail.Subject="Just testing my script" Mail.Body="Hey! I am sending this email through an ASP Page and guess what? I haven’t learnt much yet, but know that ASP is very powerful." Mail.Send Set Mail=nothing %>
This is the Code and when i Refresh nothing happens, and i didnt receive any emails. i am using IIS 4.0.
dim objCDO Set objCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") objCDO.To = "example1@hotmail.com" objCDO.From = "example2@hotmail.com.com" objCDO.Importance = 2 'High importance! Dim txtSubject txtSubject = "Hello Scott! We were wanting your advice on some programming issues. Please come to Redmond at your earliest convenience for a very fat check!"
objCDO.Subject = "Attn: Scott, we need you!!" objCDO.Body = txtSubject objCDO.Send
I created an ASP application, everything worked in test-environment. Today we put it on the intranet server and now the mails aren't send anymore... I use the CDONT object to send the mails...
I've been looking around for a solution, but I can't find one for my problem... this is what I found and already checked:
-the domain addresses are both the same (to and from) and the domain is internal... the smtp server is working as well (it worked in test environment, so...)
-IIS versions on test and intranet are the same, both 5.
Does anyone know if it is possible to send a message ID to the mail server using CDONTS? or even append something to the message ID that the mailserver assigns to the message.
I am starting to get duplicate message ID's which has been causing many problems down stream.
Is there an alternative for CDONTS.NewMail for sending email? according to this article , CDONTS.NewMail works only on Windows NT/2000 Operating Systems.
Is there an alternative class that works on Windows XP to send email?
The following is the code to send the email. It sent successfully. but I got the wrong result. I got this in my email:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vi assign =xxxxxxxxxx-com-john.mathews:email:11:11:/mailboxes/xxxxxxxxxx.com/johnmathews::: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** Why the dot "." is disappeared after john ? It should be "...../john.mathews"
I am using the CDONTS.NewMail object to send e-mail programmatically. We upgraded our IIS server from NT to Windows 2003 Server. Now it does not appear that the CDONTS object is available on the 2003 Server? Is this correct? If so, how does one send e-mail programmatically on 2003 Server using "Classic ASP" (not .NET). Which object do I use?
I am running the following script for sending e-mail thro web
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") objCDOMail.From = "vkumar@ugs.com" objCDOMail.To = "vkumar@ugs.com" objCDOMail.Subject = "Library books" objCDOMail.BodyFormat = 0 objCDOMail.MailFormat = 0 objCDOMail.Body = "hi" objCDOMail.Send Set objCDOMail = Nothing ------------------------- I get the following error, when I call send method of CDONTS.NewMail object --------------------- Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046' Permission denied
/cae/library/issueupdate.asp, line 61
----------------------------
I tried both the following. Everything looks fine. My OS is windows200 server
Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") Mail.From = "myE-mailHere@myDomain.com" Mail.To = "me@mycompany.com" Mail.BCC= email Mail.Subject = "Welcome to Kindis website" Mail.BodyFormat = 0 Mail.MailFormat = 0 Mail.Body = "<h2>Hello</h2><br><b>This is my e-mail in HTML format</b>" Mail.Send Set Mail = Nothing <---- Line 121 %>
when i try sending the email i get this error:
CDONTS.NewMail.1 error '80020009'
Unable to connect to server
/kindis/register4.asp, line 121
does it have to be with the mail server im sending to or should i be including a file in this file?
I've got an asp page with a CDONTS object sending HTML mails with proper attachments on them... thing is, some mail recipients get the full attach ok, and some don't (but still get the HTML ok)! (all recipients added to the same object... no more than 10 recipients)
i believe it's got something to do with MIME types and stuff, but i've got no ideia on how to solve this problem...
Is there a way to determin if the email message was sent? I have a numnber of applications that use CDONTS to send mail from both ASP and ASPX pages. If the server is down mail does not get sent. I do not see a way to determine this by code. Does anyone know of a way?
I'm having a problem with cdonts.newmail. quite simply when i try to use the server.createobject method to create it it gives me an invalid progid error. it works fine on the test server so the problem is somewhere in the server settings and not with the code. both servers use win2k advanced server.
I'm not sure what information is relevent to this problem so if you need more information please just ask.
specifically I'm wondering if it's possible to dissable the object, preventing it to be created. if this can be done where would you do it?
I use the following code to send email from an ASP page:
<% Dim objSendMail Set objSendMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
objSendMail.From = "abc@abc.com" objSendMail.To = "abc@abc.com" objSendMail.Subject = "Form Results - Get a Quote" objSendMail.Body = "This is the Body text of this test mail." objSendMail.Send Set objSendMail = Nothing %>
Of course, the the email addresses above are real on my ASP page.
After the above code is executed, I don't receive any email.
I have just inherited a web site with ASP coding. There is a contact form that when submitted sends an e-mail to the administrator. The site was on a Windows server and is now on a Apache *nix server using Sun ONE ASP. I've included the code and error I am receiving. Some suggestions/directions would be much appreciated.
I also have included the original error and line of code I changed it from in case it was necessary?
ERROR 1
CDONTS.NewMail.1 (0x80020009) Component is disabled /thankyou.asp, line 61
I am using the CDONTS.newmail object to send file as an attachment so I used attachfile method. it seems the attach file wont work if the file size more than 100 KB , does anybody know if there is a size limit or where to change it I am using the SMTP server included with IIS 5.0.
PS when file is sent, it will show on the EMAIL as an attachment only with 0 bytes.
Does someone know the cause of this error? I'm developing a simple christian site for our church and it needs to have an email functionality. When I submit the form I receive this error. Can anyone give me some tips?
I have just tested code I pulled from the chilli!Mail tutorial to email data via an ASP page.
It worked perfectly the first time the page was loaded, however now I am getting the following error:
Error Type: CDONTS.NewMail.1, ASP 0220 (0x80020009) This ASP file must be transacted in order to use the ObjectContext object. /ContinuousImprovements/test.asp, line 29
I haven't seen this error before and am not too sure what it means, any help would be appreciated.
My code retrieves a username and a password from a form. Then this information is compared to some usernames and passwords that are stored in a database. The important thing here is that the comparison must be case sensitive meaning that "passWord" is not the same thing as "password"
I have this code, working fine in access 2003
SQL = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE StrComp(username_column,'" & entered_username_in_form & "',0) = 0 AND StrComp(password_column,'" & entered_password_in_form & "',0) = 0"
but get the following error when I run it against my sql 2005 database.
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]'StrComp' is not a recognized built-in function name.
I don't know the corresponding t-sql for the query.
I am running a querry on an access database and have set the number of records/page displayed at 20. if there are more than 20 records returned, then 1st page will show the first 20, the next page will show next 20 and so on....
The trouble:
the count of total records displayed is correct and the first page is displayed correctly. But when i click on *Next* to go to the next page, all the records of the database get displayed (not the 2nd page of records from the query).
In Access you use "*" + [passed variable] + "*", + can be replaced with & Calling a parameterized query in Access requires % be used in place of *, however, all that I have read show dynamic SQL passed to Access:
WHERE [some column] LIKE '" & ASPvar & "' % ORDER BY ...
However, my call is similar to:
conn.qMyLookup strVar, rs
If I modify the query in Access to:
"%" & [passed variable] & "%"
I get all records. If I only put it at the end, as suggested, I only get matches at the end, not throughout the column. Code:
I am not having any trouble getting cdonts to work, but damn is it slow. I have the importance set to 2, but sometimes it can take a whole day or more to get the email. Anyone, know how I can make this faster, or another freeware program to send mail faster.
I am trying to use CDONTS to send an email and have the code below.
Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") Mailer.From = "scottfrancisfrancis@hotmail.com" Mailer.To = "scott.francis@eleco.com" Mailer.Subject = "Segment Order Confirmation" Mailer.BodyFormat = 2 BT = "Add order details here" Mailer.Body = BT Mailer.Send set Mailer=nothing
I have declared the Mailer variable earlier in the code, the page runs through without any problems and redirects as it should but no mail gets sent. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
We jsut transfured our webhosts to another company, and the new servers are Win 2k3, well our others were Win 2k. I did not know that 2k3 did not support CDONTs. I use the CDONTs for all the mail forms on our site. Is there any good turorial that have that are about CDOs? ALl i can find are CDONTs and CDOs with CDONT objects so that has been no help.
want to use CDONTS to sent my email. and i read this exellent thread: How to use CDONTS I have all kinds of forms with different names and values on different pages. How can i include all the fields of a submited form if they change name from form to form (or better yet, from page to page)? I think that i would have to count the items and then include them in the form. but i don't know if that would work and how to do it.
