i need to parse smtp logs to check the delivery status. from previous experience with smtp logs, i was under the impression that the log file followed a very specific format:
EHLO
MAIL
RCPT
BDAT
QUIT
in this case, however, i've got a log indicating commands being issued like this:
EHLO
EHLO
MAIL
MAIL
RCPT
RCPT
BDAT
BDAT
QUIT
QUIT
i have a separate list from a database of people i attempted to send emails to and need to try to look at each line in the smtp logs until i find a matching email address, then continue to read until i find a line that includes the string "+Queued+mail+for+delivery" or any of the other strings indicating the delivery status. however, given the odd sequence in which the mail commands are being issued, i don't seem to have any way of knowing if the delivery status notification line i'm reading really reflects delivery status info about the email address in question or if it's referring to one of the other delivery requests issued with another one of the EHLO commands. i've tried looking to see if there's something unique about the delivery status line to see if it's in some way associated with the RCPT line, but don't see any patterns:
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...?
I've been examining IIS logs downloaded from my web host's server, and I noticed that entried that they should have been created by me going to my own site minutes before are not there. In fact, it seems the logs were way off timewise.
How does IIS write to logs? Does it keep a cache and then dumps it once in a while to the logs, or writes right away (the latter doesn't seem the case). I am concerned by this an other anomalies in which my hosting service seems involved.
I have five forms in my website, what I'm trying to accomplish is to track the users history. For an example if the user save their information on the first page and exit the system; Whenever that user logs back in I want them to be where they left off. I hope I'm clear on what I need help with. Does anyone know how to accomplish this task? P.s I'm using Deamweaver to create my page.
I am thinking of creating a custom 404 page which does a server.transfer to a variety of different pages. My question is what shows up in the log, which the web statistics are based on?
1. The non existent page, which is requested? 2. The custom 404 page? 3. The page it gets transfered to?
I have my system set-up, where by when a user accesses the cms, a time stamp is added to the database. So we can keep check of when people accessed the system.
The added benefit of my addition, is that a session timeout is usable based on the inputted timestamp the user logged in. I added this functionaility because the system could be idle for some time and if so set the session to equal nothing or similar.
However what would be a nice feature of the cms is the display of the current user.
Below is code I have inputted to give some idea of what I am doing
Session("ADID") = objRS("adminID") objConn.Execute("UPDATE tblAdmin SET adminLastLogged=now() WHERE adminID=" & Session("ADID"))
Session.Timeout = 30 ' 30 = Minutes
SO does anyone know how I can retireve the adminUsername based on the session used when loggin into the system.
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?
I'm having a few problems with getting an SMTP server configured on my Windows 2000 Server web server. My web server is co-located at my hosts and i use VNC to remotely access the web server. Acting on advice from my host IIS's SMTP server has been disabled by running the IIS lockdown Tool. I have internal access to my hosts SMTP server where i can send mail from my web site to my own domain email address only, i am not allowed to send email external address.
Does anyone know of a SMTP server that i can use to send emails from my ASP website?
My host suggested Jmail for doing the job. I installed JMail on my web server but i am getting the following error:
"The message was undeliverable. All servers failed to receive the message"
Can anyone tell me what this error is? Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? I am correct in my understanding that JMail has its own SMTP server? How can i test to see if JMail is working? after installing JMail do i include my web server IP address as the SMTP server?
I want to send email using asp I' have tested with asp(CDONTS ),but it doesn't work. For example i send it tosomeone@somedomain,but it doesn't work.Should i make a configuration?The problem is i only can accept emails, but i cannot send any.
My web app were sending emails and then emails were not being sent because the SMTP was down. Are there certain steps that need to be followed/implemented at the web-server before an web app can send emails to the end-users into their client email? Please recommend where I can look into the IIS web-server if there is any place where permissions are set to allow the IIS to communicate with the SMTP mail server?
I'm trying to send and alert email via ASP page and it's getting stuck in c:InetpubmailrootQueue. Everything else is fine and I get no errors, this page redirects to the right place and everything. The mail just gets stuck in the queue. Go figure!

i have an asp front end app on a win2k server and want it so that when form data is submitted and entered into the database, an email is generated concurrently with the details sent to an email address.

I have an ASP page that sends email using CDOSYS. If there is any type of failure that causes the email not to be sent, I don't have any way of knowing it. Is there any email component that will notify me or log the failure?
I 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.
I have an ASP page that uses CDOSYS to send a simple HTML format email with a PDF attachment. When I open the PDF attached to the email it shows up as a blank page. I log into the web server console and open the same PDF in the source directory and it opens fine. I run a binary comparison of the source 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
Iīm facing problems while trying to send e-mails by CDO.Message... The error happens when some of the recipients arenīt real (working) e-mails... The error code is 0x8004020F, and the code simply donīt work when some of the e-mail in the list isnīt real, not sending to the rest of the list either.

I'm having problems getting the virtual SMTP server (in IIS) from sending an email message that was created from an ASP script. The messages are stored in the InetspbmailrootQueue directory but the computer isn't sending these messages to the Internet.
How do you change the port in which CDONTS will look for Microsoft SMTP server? I have Imail running on port 25, and I have SMTP service running on port 26. Any help you can provide me would be excellent.
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 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?
I'm trying to send mails from asp page.Its showing error.Permission denied.When I checked the IIS settings SMTP server showing unnknown. I cannot start the SMTP server. Wat shall ido to start the smtp server.
I 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 have an application written in ASP, originally for a Windows environment, but now has been ported to Sun Solaris running Sun One ASP. One of my pages includes a form that sends data to several people via e-mail. Sun One ASP uses ChilliMail the is similar to CDONTS.
Sending to addresses hosted by my ISP works fine, but I need to send to other addresses as well, which fails because my ISP uses SMTP-AUTH.I need to send a connection string including an identifier and a password.which tag it should be attached to? .HOST, or . FROM
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.
