[AccessD] Email Problem

Thanks a lot Bill, I will do some research on this one. It is definitely
nicer to have a real mail page on a web site than going just using the
surfer current email pop-up... no features and so clunky.

Hi Jim,

I have been using a modified version of  vbSendMail.dll
http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.Asp?ID=109

It allows you to change ports, set authentication true and add Username and 
Password. It works fine on Embarqmail.com
sample part of code
    .UseAuthentication = True  'bAuthLogin             ' Optional, default =

FALSE
    .UsePopAuthentication = bPopLogin           ' Optional, default = FALSE
    .Username = "Username at embarqmail.com"                     ' Optional, 
default = Null String
    .Password = "SomePassword"

etc.
Apparently it does not support SSL if you need that.

Doing a Google search on vbSendMail.dll for dot net produced several samples

of how to wrap the dll in dot net if that would help you.

Price is right, and enough documentation so that even I could make it work. 
By the way since I just use it to send an email to me once a day from my 
server, I have hard coded most of it.

HTH

Bill

Hi All:

While we are on the subject...

I have a number of clients who have been set up with email from their
servers through ASP/ASP.Net SMTP, through their own web sites, using IIS.
Their systems do not have a real mail server on the system but transfer the
email request to their ISP provider which basically re-forwards the mail.
This method has been working fine for years.

Now many if not all ISP are blocking port 25 (the mail out port), which
supposedly stops spammers  The issues is that if the mail going out, from
the client servers is not being sent through one of client's email accounts
(username and password need to be provided), it is blocked.

I do not know if many have that problem but it will basically shut down any
client, mailing from their internal web sites that do not have their own
mail servers installed.

Has anyone dealt with this issue and has found a simple solution?

TIA
Jim

Redemption is a dll/code library you purchase and then program against
to handle emails, including CDO-based, SMTP, etc.  It handles the ugly
details.  As I recall it allows you to use .verify, but that may not be
useful to you.

Correct.  What's Redemption?
