[AccessD] Email Problem

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.

We always used Redemption with our Access apps (and still use it with
.Net) and trapped the errors on individual email addresses.  It sounds
like you're set up to send a single email to multiple addresses,
correct?

Dear List:
 
My day for questions.  I'm sending emails automatically, unattended,
from this app - scheduled to run at night.  When the email contains an
invalid address it generates an error "-21472220977 - the server
rejected one or more recipient addresses.  The server response was 550
5.1.1 User Unknown.
Possible bad email address"
 
then it lists all of the addresses in the To: CC: and BCC: fields, and
the process stops until the user comes in, sees the message and clicks
OK.  At which point they don't really know what address was bad.
 
I suppose I could use On Error Resume Next at the line which calls the
email send routine.  Of course, that way the user will never know that
there was a bad address and that the report didn't go out.  So I think
that's not a good solution.
 
However, is there a way to verify addresses before sending an email?  Or
is there a better approach to this problem?
