Using SMTP/server-side Email
Is it possible to set up server-side mail services such that when someone
e-mails to a certain address, the contents attached to that mail are
processed and the processed content is returned to the user, again, as an
attachment?I installed a server-side component for managing graphics. "Wouldn't it be
nice," thought I, "if untutored staff could email graphics to a certain
e-mail address to have them resized and returned to them.")
I understand how to handle the graphics processing and the sending. I don't
understand how to set things up so that e-mailing to a certain address will
trigger the start of an application. Ideally you could do this all within
ASP. Is this possible?

I am running a rather large email list and want it to be processed directly on the server. I have been using ASPEmail from Persits, which has a SendToQueue function, but it still requires a lot of processing time in the browser, and often times out. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this?

I am working on a listing for sending emails via CDONTS component...
I have installed SMTP service on my machine and tried running the sample code....No errors appear, yet no mail is sent in the long run...All necessary services are up and running (IIS Admin, WWW and SMTP).
Another thing is that i have checked to see if Default SMTP Virtual Server is listed under the Internet Services Manager pane tree, but nothing seems to be there except Default FTP Site and Default Web Site....
The question might seem silly but...do i have to have a Mail Server installed.....?
How can i determine the cause that prevents the mail from being sent...Logs don't help much....Is there a way to detect the actual presence of the component...?

Our network administrator does not want to install the IIS SMTP server on
our intranet. He wants me to use our existing SMTP server
"mail.smpi.siemens.ca". Can I do this with IIS?? Is this a setting in an
ASP if I'm not running the IIS SMTP server?
We are running on Windows 2000 SP4 with IIS5.

is it possible to open an excel file (used as a template) from server using server-side vbscript; then modify it or add values from client using client-side vbscript?

Following is a vbscript code extract triggered by a combobox OnChange event. arrVendorA and arrdefpack are server side arrays and i need the intCounter parameter to be the array index. Code:
<script>
sub getstdPackByVendor(strPartNo, intCounter)
dim selVendor
selvendor= colSelect("cboVendor", intCounter).value
if selvendor= "<%=arrvendorA(intCounter)%>" then
if "<%=arrdefpack(intCounter)%>" = 2 then
colTD("txtStdPack" & intcounter+1 ).innertext = cstr("<%=arrVAStdPAckL2(intCounter)%>")
end if
end if
end sub
</script>

How do I go about calling a server-side vbscript within a client-side
javascript function? What I have is a page heavy on the javascript that has
a number of functions, one of which is to begin a visual countdown with an
onclick and also open an asp page containing the server-side vbscript, which
initiates a wake-on-lan call. I had no idea how to call the vbscript within
the javascript function, so this is why I opted for the vbscript asp page
"pop-up" via window.open. Code:

I have a Client Side Java Script which is supposed to re-load the options on my serverside ASP form.
I have been trying to get the syntax right to assign the Select box on the ASP form to a variable in my JavaScript so I can update the options. Can anyone either tell me if this is not possible or what the syntax should be. Here is some information.
Form Name = AddProdForm
Select Box name = subprodline
JavaScript Variable = form1
Here is one of the many versions of this line I have tried.
var form1=document.forms(""AddProdform"");

I am starting to build quite a few pages that will have
tables of data from an SQL database.
I have been building the table rows on the server side
in VBScript, but I have been thinking about having the
VBScript code just build array variables in the <head>
section (or as local variables), and then have JavaScript
functions on the client side actually populate the tables
when the page loads.
I do plan to do other things like being able to sort the
tables in JavaScript code on the client, limit the tables
height and be able to scroll the rows, and click on a row
in the table, and have the values populate a form. I will
also need to be able to export/download/? some tables into
Excel.

can we send email from our internal server without using an external SMTP provider?

I was able to send email via the server in both .NET and ASP (using CDO for ASP). However I had to configure a SMTP server for this to work, which means the email will be sent via the server's SMTP service. so this could mean a lot of overload on the server. So as to reduce the work on the server, is there another way to send email to people?

I am having problems trying to send emails using IIS 5.1 and ASP on a XP Pro box
I think that it is a configuration problem in my SMTP setup
I can send emails using Telnet but when I send via ASP they all end up in the Queue folder
ASP is not generating any error messages
Have tried code using CDO and CDONTS but I do not think it is a code issue
Sometimes I get a system event error saying that cannot do a DNS lookup on my send address
Any suggestions please
Properties for SMTP on my system:
General IP address : all unassigned
Access Relay: {my computer IP address}
Delivery Advanced Smart Host: mail.bigpond.com
Delivery Advanced Fully qualified domain name: {my computer name}

im trying to use the following code to log whenever a user clicks through
this particlular message box - however, this currently logs regardless of
whether or not the message box was clicked - im assuming this is because the
server-side code can't see the client side if condition. but how can i set
the varMsgBox variable as a server-side variable? Code:

I've been using CDOSYS Mail and this bit of code fine for a year. Well, we wanted to change the method of sending email from the Webserver sending it, to designating a specific SMPT server.
So, I found this code on MSFT's web site (MSFT CDOSYS SMTP ) that will allow me to do this, and it works, except that the redirect command that I have at the end of the file no longer works. I have no idea why.
Thi is the error I get:

It seem that I did not configure the SMTP service on a Windows 2000 server correctly because all the email is been sent to InetpubmailrootQueue directory. Do I need to install Outlook for the email to send the mail to the recipient?

I am running Win XP and have installed the IIS SMTP service, however I'm not sure what I need to do to configure both the SMTP service and CDOSYS properly to allow me to send out email from an ASP script.
THE PROBLEM:
What is happening is the email is not sent and goes to the 'c:InetpubmailrootQueue' folder. I have checked the event viewer and the error I receive is:
Message delivery to the remote domain 'yahoo.com' failed for the following reason: The remote server did not respond to a connection attempt.
I believe the SMTP service isn't setup correctly or I haven't configured CDOSYS properly in my ASP script.
The CDOSYS part of my ASP script is setup as follows (I am using Javascript with ASP btw):

I have Road Runner cable internet access and Im working in a local development environment (writing .ASP) and have a site running on my network on a windows xp pro machine via IIS with CDONTS installed.
When I try to send a confirmation email (simple text) via CDONTS the message is built but remains on the server in the QUEUE folder ... how can I tweak the SMTP settings on the server to allow me to send email out from the server...
just the occassional test as I develop sites - not looking to spam and have a fairly full featured router to block external access to SMTP machine so its not abused.

I have a CDONTS script which has been sending mail from a client's website form to their address. However, the script has suddenly stopped working after three years of working fine. It doesn't error, they just don't receive the mail any more. I've tried CCing myself in the script and can confirm the mail is not getting through. The script itself is tried and tested and syntaxially correct, and it is hosted on a windows 2000 server which has not been changed or reconfigured at all recently.
I think the problem is because they're using their own exchange server, not the web hosts' mail server. Therefore I would expect that mail sent from the web script wouldn't go through because there is no local mail server to process it.
The problem is that the script hasn't changed, the host say their system hasn't changed, and the client's IT team say their exchange settings haven't changed!?!
I could set up a CDOSYS script to use their Exchange server to deal with the email, but their IT support won't allow relaying, so I don't think this is possible.
Is connecting to their Exchange box the only option, or should the website host still be able to process the web-script-generated mail despite not being their mail provider? I'm getting a lot of grief here, but it can't be the script that has suddenly broken because nobody has touched it!

When a file is uploaded, notifications go out to Admins. Currently Admins have the ability to have 3 email addresses that the notification can be sent to.
Now lets say they only have 1 email address for a contact. When I run the code below, it cycles through to everyone that needs to be contacted and sends email to all 3 addresses.....BUT #2 & #3 are empty and then in my SMTP folder I receive a bunch of files in the badmail folder.
I need to correct this so that I can eliminate having to go and purge on a daily basis.
Now I am sure that there is a better way of doing this... I inherited this and am looking for some help with correcting this....

Anyone has ideas how to send an email through ASP without having an SMTP server? I'm currently building a website which needs emails to be sent when users submits a form, however the web space provider doesn't not have an SMTP server. I'm now using CDO on my local testing server (with SMTP installed) and it works, but I just don't know how to get it working after uploading it because the remote server hasn't got SMTP on it.

1. I wonder, why do I need to add the following lines when sending forms through mail, using CDO component?
2. If I remove these lines and the form is still submitted as it should, and I get the mail as a result as it should, does it mean I do not need these lines?
3. In other words - How do I know if an SMTP service is installed on the local server, and not in another network (besides asking the admin)? Code:

I have no knowledge of Exchange server, and have always used CDO to send emails from ASP in the past. the server in question doesn't have SMTP installed alongside IIS, it has Exchange installed which apparantly does have SMTP capabilities but not like the default ones normally accessbile via IIS.
Has anyone ever used this approach to sending emails? I'm hoping that I dont need a component or anything else, just some changes to my existing email code.

Is it possible to logon to the SMTP server that comes with IIS from a machine other than the actual server. Ideally I would want to put some VB Script in an SQL Server Job Schedule or an ASP page that uses CDONTS and use it to pull the emails into the database. The SQL Server is on another machine on the network. Is this viable.
