Sending Form Via Email - CDONTS / SMTP
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.

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

i've been looking EVERYWHERE and I can't find anything on how to send an email within asp. But not just an email, my smtp server requires authentication and i haven't been able to come across anything that supports sending username/passwords.

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...

Can someone review and give me some hints. Also when I define my mail object using, "Dim objCDOMail As CDONTS.NewMail", I receive an http error. Code:

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.

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>")
objIndexMail.Send
Response.Write("<br><br>Thank You")
%>
Anyone see any problems? there are no messages waiting to be sent in the outbox, and nothing is getting delivered to the badmessages folder either..

I have a web form where a client can select which site members to send
an email to.
This form is populated from the contents of the member table, so the
form can have 0-x names listed on it depending on member expiration dates.
When the form is submitted, the code loops through the form contents and
sends an email to those members that meet the selected criteria.
All this worked perfectly when I was sending text emails, but since I
changed, it sends the message correctly, but the last person gets
everyone else as well. For example, if I have three members (mem1, mem2
and mem3) to send emails to, here is what happens
mem1 gets the correctly formatted message
mem2 gets mem1's correctly formatted message plus mem2's message - one
right after the other. Code:

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!

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.
The code for my processing page is below:-

It seems that my email form is working correctly but I dont receive an email. I look into the mailroot/Queue folder and see the emails.
For some reason the emails are not being sent off. I dont think its a problem with my email form... I think its a server configuration problem.

Is there an easy way to use a form and send the info to an email address using ASP? I have tried using some free scripts but they don't want to work for me.
I am getting an error message that the form is empty. Maybe it would be better to program something from scratch.

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:

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.

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.

I want to send e-mails from my asp pages but don't know how to achieve that. I have tried to create CDO/CDONTS server objects but without luck. I guess I don't have SMTP installed or not configured appropriately.
Can you help me here? What do I need to do (and if complicated how is it done) to get an SMTP server up an running?

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?
