I am running Win XP and have installed the IIS SMTP service, however I'm not sure what I need to do to configure both the SMTP service and CDOSYS properly to allow me to send out email from an ASP script.
THE PROBLEM:
What is happening is the email is not sent and goes to the 'c:InetpubmailrootQueue' folder. I have checked the event viewer and the error I receive is:
Message delivery to the remote domain 'yahoo.com' failed for the following reason: The remote server did not respond to a connection attempt.
I believe the SMTP service isn't setup correctly or I haven't configured CDOSYS properly in my ASP script.
The CDOSYS part of my ASP script is setup as follows (I am using Javascript with ASP btw):

I've been using CDOSYS Mail and this bit of code fine for a year. Well, we wanted to change the method of sending email from the Webserver sending it, to designating a specific SMPT server.
So, I found this code on MSFT's web site (MSFT CDOSYS SMTP ) that will allow me to do this, and it works, except that the redirect command that I have at the end of the file no longer works. I have no idea why.
Thi is the error I get: error '8004020f' /asp/send_email_foundation_conf.asp, line 78
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?
It seem that I did not configure the SMTP service on a Windows 2000 server correctly because all the email is been sent to InetpubmailrootQueue directory. Do I need to install Outlook for the email to send the mail to the recipient?
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've set up a website contact page which uses CDOSYS to send form details to an email address.
However, the domain is set up such as the client is using their own mail server, and using my server only to host the website.
Ordinarily I would set up hosting with email and change the nameservers of the domain to point to my server, but in this case the client is keeping the nameserver details the same, but just updating the A record to point to my server to display the website.
Trouble is, the CDOSYS email doesn't seem to work with this set-up. Do I need to hard code their mail server IP somewhere to get it to work?
I have a CDOSYS mail and it's working ok but it sends plain text massage. But i want to send with images and links. But when i put a link with image in the .HTMLBody field like <a href="http://www.mysite.com/"><img src="file:///C:/My Documents/image.gif" border="0"></a> so, i got an error message.
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.
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.
I have a big problem with the SMTP service in IIS on Windows Server 2003.
I tried to install FTP service on windows Server 2003 but had to cancel it as it did not appear to be working. Since then, i went back into IIS Manager and all services were stopped. I have got the default web site services started OK, but the SMTP service is stopped, and right clicking and selecting start does not start it running again. I just get a dialog box saying that the service isn't running and to start it running again (!!!!! That's what i was trying to do!!!!!!!!)
i also tried to restart it from DOS and got a message saying that the service was already running!!
i have also tried to stop the service from DOS and get a message saing that 'The Service could not be controlled in it's present state'!!!
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
i am having trouble getting CDOSYS to work, i have just changed from CDONTS (which was working fine), because i want to be able to email a webpage as my body Code:
I use CDOsys and this code to specify the recipient. I guess I could create two separate instances of the objMail and specify everything one more time, but I want to send mails to two persons at once (the recipient and myself) and therefore wonder if there is a shorter way to do it.
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?
Since I want to be able to send a confirmation e-mail (containing user name/pwd etc.) to every visitor that enters some info in a form on my web page I wonder how that is done.
I have heard about SMTP and CDO but don't know the differences or which one is applicable in my case
I'm running xp-pro and use my computer as a web server but don't know if I have SMTP installed (or how to use it if it actually is there).
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..
What I am trying to do is to upload 4 files to my server (Windows 2003 Server Edition , IIS 6.0) and then e-mail them to my e-mail account. I use 2 files. The first is uploadTester.asp...
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.
Is it possible to set up server-side mail services such that when someone e-mails to a certain address, the contents attached to that mail are processed and the processed content is returned to the user, again, as an attachment?I installed a server-side component for managing graphics. "Wouldn't it be nice," thought I, "if untutored staff could email graphics to a certain e-mail address to have them resized and returned to them.") I understand how to handle the graphics processing and the sending. I don't understand how to set things up so that e-mailing to a certain address will trigger the start of an application. Ideally you could do this all within ASP. Is this possible?
Does anyone know any good mass emailing service that would connect to my members DB??. maybe an API of some sort. I found this so far: http://www.jangomail.com/ but not sure it there are any better ones out there.
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 am developing somthing that relies on CDONTS on my machine. For the purposes of demonstrating the work, I need to find a FREE service that will take form data submitted to it and forward it on as an e-mail (just as my own CDONTS script would)Does such a service exist?
When a file is uploaded, notifications go out to Admins. Currently Admins have the ability to have 3 email addresses that the notification can be sent to.
Now lets say they only have 1 email address for a contact. When I run the code below, it cycles through to everyone that needs to be contacted and sends email to all 3 addresses.....BUT #2 & #3 are empty and then in my SMTP folder I receive a bunch of files in the badmail folder.
I need to correct this so that I can eliminate having to go and purge on a daily basis.
Now I am sure that there is a better way of doing this... I inherited this and am looking for some help with correcting this....
It doesnt thow any errors, but no email is being sent!
