I am trying to send e-mails to customers in a database. Each e-mail is customised for each customer, so I cannot simply copy all customers on the same e-mail. My logic loops through the appropriate recordset and attempts to send a notification e-mail to each customer. The problem is that about 10 - 20% of the e-mails do not get sent! (I know this because I :bcc myself on all the e-mails.) I also know that there is no problem with the e-mail addresses because when I try again to run the program with the same addresses but a smaller list of customers, those mails go out just fine.
The program generates a report which shows that it tried to send all the appropriate e-mails, but in reality several of the mails were not sent. What's interesting is that all of the e-mails near the beginning of the program execution get sent. But as the program goes on, more and more get skipped. It seems that CDONTS cannot keep up with the program execution.
Does anyone know of a way to solve this? What would be great would be a DO... WHILE loop that kept trying until the e-mail was sent successfully. But, for that approach to work, there would have to be some way for the program to check if the e-mail had gone out successfully. Another option would be a loop that waited until the *previous* e-mail had been sent successfully before attempting to send the next one.
Does anyone know of a way to test either of those conditions or of an alternate approach to avoid this problem I am having?
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.
Here's the scenario. I'm currently using cdosys/asp to send mail to our SMTP server. We use a product called MailFilter to check for SPAM. It doesn't work very well. If MailFilter isn't working cdosys also has problems and emails don't get sent. As these email are confirmations for customer's bookings this means lots of customers calling to see where their confirmation emails have gone. The root of the problem is MailFilter but that here to stay. So I had this thought of sending the message to a queue of some sort so at least they will get to the customer eventually rather than being lost for good. So here's the question:
Can I/How do I send messages to a mailbox on our exchange server using cdo.message?
my CDONTS email isn't sending.. I think the code is set up correctly but I'm not positive. Is there a way to specify a mail server, if necessary? It seems to be going through without a hitch but the emails are never arriving, to any box I send them to. So perhaps our server needs some sort of authentication before permitting outgoing mails, I'm not really sure. Is there a way to check this?
I have our form set up on a standard html page, with a "action=process.asp" command..
here's the process.asp file..
<% 'Option Explicit Dim objIndexMail Set objIndexMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") objIndexMail.From = Request.Form("email") objIndexMail.To = "me@myemail.com" objIndexMail.Cc = "me@myhotmail.com"
objIndexMail.Subject = "New Inquiry from" & Request.Form("parents")
Response.Write("Ready to create body")
objIndexMail.Body = "bunch of body text here"
Response.Write("body Created")
objIndexMail.Send Response.Write("Sent")
Set objIndexMail = Nothing Response.Write("Thank You") %>
it gets to the thank you message every time, but nothing ever arrives in my mailboxes...
I am using CDONTS object to send emails to a person when he is registered with the web portal,but the problem is the mail is getting filtered as a spam or junk mail, and does not land in the Inbox,how to send this auto generated email into the inbox and not as a spam or bulk mail.
I'm running Win2K... and have an ASP script that uses the CDONTS object properties to send email from a web-enabled ASP form. Problem is, the page is loading fine, with no errors. However, when I check the '/queue' folder in my Inetpub directory, I see all my mail queued there. It never gets sent. There are no emails in the '/badmail' folder, or in any other folder in '/mailroot'. What gives?
I'm kinda vague on how SMTP works exactly, in Win2K. What I'm trying to do is to send email over a LAN to a client. I want to avoid installing MS Exchange Server if possible. Am just trying to have a client on the LAN send email, and then have the client's Outlook retrieve said mail. All this done offline, without ever connecting to the Net.
I' m using opertion system XP PRO,i have instelled the IIs 5.1. im trying to simulate sending email to my outlook express but it'snt working,somebody can tell me if i need to install any other componente?
how to conigurate my smtp(what is my host name,how can i find it)?
i use a personal web server and i'd like to send a mail into an ASP page. Usually, i use CDONT component but it seems it does not work on Personal Web Server.
Our server is a Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 3, IIS 5 with Lockdown Wizard applied.
My first problem is related to CDONTS.NewMail. Up until recently, I had no problems sending e-mail with this little utility. Our current development efforts are moving to .NET so it didn't matter to us that this is something that won't be supported anymore by MS. However, while we are in the process of flipping to .NET, this is something we're still using for the time being.
The problem I'm having is that the e-mail is not getting sent at all! I don't get any errors or anything like that, and when I look at our IIS 4 relaying SMTP mail server, and then look at our big outgoing mail server, I can't find the e-mail anywhere in there. It's like it vanishes. Can anyone give any insights?
Secondly, we have an older Access based training application that again, up until recently was working just fine. I don't know if the IIS lockdown wizard did something I'm not aware of, but now on the line in the ASP file where the server goes to open the database using the DSN, I get an "Unspecified Error"
I checked www.aspfaq.com and found the article about this and tried all of the tricks mentioned there for this error message. Granting the IUSR_machinename account read/write access toe the TEMP directory got me further into the file, but it didn't get me far enough to finish it because later on in the file, when the server goes to open another connectio nthe the database, I get he same problem. I cannot modify the source code on this page without killing our support contract or warranty on the product. Can anyone give me any thoughts on this one?
I am using CDONTS to send a mail.There is no error in the code and it says that the mail has been send successfully,But i am not receiving any mails .The Code
Set vobjMail = CreateObject("CDO.Message") vobjMail.From= Email address vobjMail.To= Email address vobjMail.Subject= The subject vobjMail.TextBody= The Body vobjMail.Send
I would like to know if this can be achieved! On the form I a drop down menu that's called ("Escalation_type") the values are eta, hdtv, and supervisors. I have some ideas but I am not sure if it will work or not. If the use chooses an eta as a value I would like it to be sent a mailbox for exam: no@where.com. If they choose hdtv as value I would like it to be sent to a different mailbox. Can this be achieve by using the case statement or the if statement?
Hey all, I'm having trouble getting email to be sent using CDONTS. I've done this many times before with no problem, but this one just seems to want to be a pain..
The site is just on an IP address right now, but it still has access to a mail server and all. Everything seems to go correctly, but the mail server has no logs of cdonts trying to send anything. the script isn't generating any errors though.
<%@ language="VBscript" %> <%
'Option Explicit
Dim objIndexMail Dim body
Set objIndexMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") objIndexMail.From = Request.Form("email") objIndexMail.To = "my email address" objIndexMail.Subject = "New Inquiry from" & Request.Form("parents") Response.Write("Ready to create body <br><br>")
body = "bunch of body text here" objIndexMail.Body = body
Response.Write("body Created <br><br>") Response.Write(body & "<br><br>")
IS the code for sending email using cdonts different if you are running a windows 2000 server with exchange 2000 as opposed to running a different windows server (NT) with exchange 5.5?
if I upgrade the server to exchange 2000 from 5.5 do i have to reinstall the cdo.dll on the server??? do i need to somehow reinitialize the cdo so it's active?
Catching an error from CDONTS New Mail I need to find away to catch an error if CDONTS” New Mail dose not deliver the email. I have searched for manuals on this but have only found short references on how to send email, nun of them say anything a bought returning an error
I had a webmail CDONTS script working.quite well too I think I had an error saying mail.to had a type mismatch. I went through the database (it's a web form mailing list for a client) and found what I thought to be bad email addresses. Tried it again and it works fine. My question, is there anyway to validate the email address? I am assuming that CDONTS wants the text string to be in a certain format. How can I test the data for a valid format, and then throw out that email address if it is not in the expected format?
I'm working on a few intranet pages and have a doubt on how to send e-mails ( i have the aspemail component installed) to outside clients including the invoice for services payment.So differently from Intranet issues where you easily provide a link embeedded on the e-mail, I can't figure how to show the info from outside offices network. Does anyone knows how to do it? perhaps printingscreen the html page by code and then send to the client as a embedded image or something....?

I am usually a CDONTS man but the hosting company say I must use CDOSYS. The following code seems to only work correctly when the recipients email address is the same as the sender address.
