My server has POP but only has SMTP if sending to my domain, and not other domains (such as hotmail). I'm therefore wondering, if anyone knows of any scripts etc, that will allow me to have a sort of "virtual" SMTP server on my site?. (I really can't afford to use a third party SMTP mailer).

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...?
Config:
IIS 6 Windows 2003
Site_A
Site_B
Scenario:
I need a virtual directory in Site_B to serve the files in Site_A (without redirecting the request) so I just added for example Site_B/A as a vdir, and set it's home dir to the physical root of Site_A (eg. C:inetpubwwwrootSite_A) sounds simple enough... not for long:
Problem (nb. I tend to use forward slashes as web/iis paths and backslash as windows filesystem paths):
The include files in Site_A reside in: Site_Aincludes and the include statements in the ASP code seem to be absolute virtual paths (if such a thing exists) for example: <!--#include virtual="/includes/header.asp"--> Code:
Our network administrator does not want to install the IIS SMTP server on

View Replies View RelatedI have a website and I need visitorst to be able to send emails to me from it by filling out a form (not mailto:).
I have Win2k3 server enterprise running with IIS and POP3 all setup. My provider blocks port 80 so i redirect using no-ip.com to another port. I tryed CDOSYS and other free third party mailers (currently I have Persits Software free ASPemail installed), but I can't get anything to work. I know by now that I need to set something up (maybe some redirect) on my server so this works.
Please, if anyone knows how to do it, tell me how. In particular, to send an email from my site to at least my local server, and at best to lets say hotmail.com.
I'm having problems getting CDO.Message to work with SMTP on my Windows 2000
Server. I keep getting the following error:
CDO.Message.1 error '80040213'
The transport failed to connect to the server.
/services/E-CommerceQuote_new.asp, line 2357
I am assuming that it is meaning it can't find the server i have specified
where the SMTP server is, which is the same PC. I have specified by IP and
domain name but i get same error. i know i haven't said much about the setup
im using so if needed i can provided more details.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
I have an ASP page that uses CDOSYS to send a simple HTML format email with a

and attached files and there's a difference: one byte, x'2E' is missing at
offset x'0231'. If I save the attached file and use a hex editor to insert
the x'2E' the file opens just like the original

View Replies View RelatedI have a client with their own W2k server and their IT guy refuses to turn on the SMTP service for fear of it becoming hijacked by spammers.
However, they also want their web site to perform some emailing functions I would normally use CDOSYS for.
I'm having them look into alternate SMTP servers to use with CDOSYS, but I was wondering if anyone here can recommend a 3rd-party ASP-based SMTP app that might be more secure than IIS' built-in service?

View Replies View RelatedI get the permission denied error, so I know its a permissions problem on the mailroot folder.
My question is then, if my site is being hosted, would it matter what the permissions
of the folder on my local computer are? Or would I have to call my host and ask him to make the appropriate permission changes?
And if you could tell me what exactly I need to ask/tell the host, if that is the case,
so that I don't have to call a million times.

I want to know if SMTP can be installed on Windows NT Workstation . I asked my system administrator to install smtp, but he is telling that smtp can be installed only on Windows NT SERVER .
The problem is my web host has windows 2000 and iis 5, but i have Windows NT workstation and iis 4 [with latest NT Option Pack]. I had read sometime before that SMTP comes with IIS installation kit. I am thinking of using this to design a feedback form.
anyone know if this is possible? I need to specify a different one than the default.
View Replies View RelatedI have an Intranet site sitting on an Windows XP server, which has IIS 6.0 installed. This Intranet site contains a virtual directory (VD), which sits on a second server and has Windows 2000 installed.
To test how a virtual directory would work for this particular Intranet site, I had previously set up the VD on the web server. Everything worked well...no errors.
Once testing was complete and the location of the VD changed to the second server, I have been receiving the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found
I understand what this error is saying, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any problems between IIS 6 being on a XP server and the VD on a 2000 server and any possible implications.
Is there a way in asp to create a new default web site within IIS
I am setting a content managament system and want to create a new default web site during on of the processes.
