i recently finished a tutorial on cdonts and finished putting together the page and form etc. now ive been reading and it seems cdonts is being discontinued and cdosys is taking over. does this mean that my cdonts will not work and i have to trnasfer it to cdosys ?
how can i transfer it to cdosys ? or do i have to make a completely new mail script?
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.
I am trying to get a asp-mailer setup that will send a specified attachment. I have tried both CDONTS and CDOSYS methods ... both are giving me headaches.
And the best part is how incredibly helpful the error is: (Sarcasm Intended)
Error Type: (0x80004005) Unspecified error <-- They should change that error to ... "Good Luck!" /knowledgetree/emailer-drivers.asp, line 90 I hilighted the above line in the code as well.
Can someone please tell me if its possible to create an instance of CDOSYS (to send an emails) on one host and have the email sent from another host.. or are there obvious gaps in my understanding of what takes place when one tries to send an email using CDOSYS or CDONTS?
I contacted my hosting people and they said they're running Windows 2003, which uses CDOSYS and not CDONT. So, I followed the advice on the sitepoint site for converting to CDOSYS and have concocted the following script: ....
I am new to asp i am facing in sending the contact form sending through email using cdosys the following is the code server space work on Microsoft Windows 2003 w/IIS 6.0.

I am having a problem formatting an email message which comes from a form.
I am currently having difficulty with the <br> tag which I am using for line spaces within my email. I am getting an expected statement error message which is pointing to the line which is underlined below. I can't think what is causing this.
I made an contact form, and an asp script for the email, but my messages get sent to the mail/queue folder in inetpub. I have a hunch it has something to do with the email address I put in the "from" area since it's just made up.
I'm using cdonts object, and registered the dll, and it works fine. I also opened port 25 on my router, and tested if it really was open, and it is. Code:
Can anyone take a look at this code and see where I may be going wrong?
************************************************** * html page: <form method=Post action=get.asp> valley secretary<br> <input type="text" name="t1" size="20"><p> <input type=submit value=Submit></form> ************************************************** * asp page: <% Dim t1name,t1 t1name = "valley secretary" t1 = Request.Form("t1") Dim ObjMail Set ObjMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") ObjMail.To = "kklimarchuk@supremecouncil.org" ObjMail.From = "kklimarchuk@supremecouncil.org" ObjMail.Subject = "Form Submission" ObjMail.Body = t1name & vbcrlf&_t1 ObjMail.Send Set ObjMail = Nothing Response.Write"Thank You" %>
Here are the two pages html and calling the asp. As you can see I am new to this. I also had our Network Admin make sure CDONTS was installed correctly on IIS. Any help would be awesome. I have been trying to create an email form for months now......
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 an email script that used to work but now doesn't, my web host told me I have to use CDOSYS instead of CDONTS.If it's not to much trouble could someone look at my script below and make it CDOSYS compliant.Thanks
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%> <% Dim usxCDO Set usxCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") usxCDO.From = cStr(Request("email")) usxCDO.To = "someone@somewhere.com" usxCDO.Subject = "Subscription To Magazine" usxCDO.Body = Chr(13) & Chr(10) &_ "Name: " & cStr(Request("name")) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &_ "Company: " & cStr(Request("company")) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &_ "Email: " & cStr(Request("email")) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &_ "Instructions: " & cStr(Request("instructions")) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) &_ "A SUBSCRIPTION ORDER HAS BEEN PLACED."

I'm trying to convert this code and after several attempts at tutorials I am still scratching my head I am using XP pro IIS

I am using Cdonts and CDOSYS to send email. Script runs without any error, but some of the reason I am not receiving any e mails. I am using window 2000 on exchange 2000 sercer, Code:
Is it necessary to set field configurations for CDOSYS?
I have yet to recode all my existing uses of CDONTS over to CDOSYS. In most of the sample code I've seen on the usual ASP sites, there is code to set field configurations for CDOSYS (usually using With... End With). However, in a number of CDOSYS-related code samples offered within this news group, the field configuration code is absent.
I've been searching high and low for a decent comparitive analysis of the various e-mail components for IIS (specifically for use with ASP).
Here are a few that are pretty common: ASPMail - I've been using this, but it seems that if the SMTP server is backed up, it slows down ASP page that submits the mail, apparently because this version does NOT provide message queuing ASPQMail - This component provides the queuing options, which theoretically would avoid ASP slowdown when the SMTP server backs up. Unfortunately my host doesn't offer this component.
CDONTS - Comes with IIS, so widely supported CDOSYS - Comes with IIS 5 & later JMail - A free component, also widely used. Documentation is poorly translated into English and difficult to follow.
Putting aside the fact that every web host supports a different set of mail components and "your mileage may vary"...
When using CDOSYS, if an email address contains a hyphen(-) prior to the @ sign, the form will fail. Can anyone reading this who uses CDOSYS test this same scenario in their environment? I wonder if this is a CDOSYS issue, or something specific to my situation.
When using CDONTS, we can only send to email addresses that are internal to our company. For example, any emails addressed to(E-Mail address blocked: See forum rules) go through fine. For all non widgetsRus email addresses, such as Internet addresses, the form submits but the delivery never occurs and so failure messages are returned.
This single form has been setup on two servers, on the one server it works fine and can be sent to non widgetsRus recipients. The same form on a different server does not. I know it's not the code so I'm wondering if there are some SMTP settings that could be the problem?
I run a web site that uses various forms to send email to customers. For example, I have a "Forgot your password?" script and a "Email this page" script.I've found out that when a user sends an email via my site to a Hotmail address, the email just "disappears." I'm assuming Hotmail is considering the email SPAM because it was send by my web server? The site uses ASP and I've tried using CDONTS and CDOSYS (which I specified a SMTP server for) and nothing seems to work for Hotmail.
A large portion of my customers user Hotmail, so banning it really isn't an option.Is there anything I can do to prevent Hotmail from blocking my site's emails?
if objIndexMail.Send then Response.Write("Mail Sent") else Response.Write("Failure. ") end if
and it's coming up as Failure every time. Is there a way I can see the status of the .Send command, and why it came up as a failure? no errors are being generated, it's just not sending..
I have both cdosys.dll and cdonts.dll on my W2K3 server. We have been told by our web authors that their asp code won't work on our machine and that we don't have CDONTS installed on our machine. They're getting an error from:
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
I know that the new format is:
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Is there something special that we have to have installed to make CDONTS work?
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...
It doesnt thow any errors, but no email is being sent!

I am trying CDOSYS code to send out email. The problem is when I try to send email to gmail and hotmail account, it never works. Means, no email appears at gmail and hotmail account. But when I send it to yahoo mail, it works.
I run the code at localhost. I use Win XP Pro. I just wonder why this happen. Can someone explain to me?
I used the below code to try and send an e-mail. On my local machine (XP machine) using IIS, the e-mail got generated and was placed in this folder.
C:InetpubmailrootQueue
So I am assuming the mail got generated correctly and the reason the e-mail did not get sent is that I do not have SMTP setup in my IIS. Do you agree with this statement? The reason I asked that is because I am not sure if I have SMTP setup or not in IIS and I am not sure how I check that.
To continue, I migrated my code up to the production web server and I tried executing it there. I have some display.write statements and they all were displayed so again, I am assuming the mail got generated correctly.
The problem is that the e-mail was not sent (or at least I am assuming it did not because I do not see the e-mail in my inbox).
I have never generated an e-mail before so this process is new to me. My code will be attached below but I was trying to understand some basic concepts.
-If I get my code to work on my local machine thru IIS, should it then also work in the production environment?
-It seems like I am calling so pretty specific components for the configuration settings. Is this the correct way to handle this?
-If you are familiar with this type of code, have I implemented this correctly? I would assume I have not since an e-mail is not getting set.....
can anyone post or direct me to a code snippet for sending a plaintext/html mutlipart email using CDOSYS? I can do basic code, but this is way beyond me. If a user enters html into a form, is there a way for code to strip that out and leave only plaintext behind?
The idea is that a user would fill in one html field, the form would email it in multipart, with one part using the html the user entered and the plaintext part using the same info but with the html code stripped out.
I'm running a mailing list which has grown to around 5000 recipients. I'm currently using ASP to cycle through a database of recipients to send each a custom email with their name, unsubscribe link etc.
Currently I'm using CDOSYS to send the mail, and have set up a page to trigger the emails in batches of 50 so that they don't create blockages on the mail server.
Is it possible to queue emails with CDOSYS, since this would mean I could fire all the emails at once, safe in the knowledge that they will all be dealt with without a problem.
I've used the ASPEmail component before which does this, and it was very effective, but sadly it's not an option to use it on this domain.
cdosys body text is not being sent by email. Please see if you can spot the problem. Everything below emailHeader & emailFooter is not being sent by email.
see code below:
<!--- BEGIN CDOSYS CODE --->
<% dim strBody Set MailObj=CreateObject("CDO.Message") MailObj.Subject="Your Online order from store-website" MailObj.From= "store@store.com" MailObj.To= Request.Form.Item("cEmail") MailObj.Bcc="store@store.com" MailObj.TextBody = strBody
