[AccessD] How to send Automated E-mails from Access after hours

You didn't ask but... some examples with 2 web-based "no cost" SMTP servers,
plus Road runner: just set up a don't-care-about-spam account and hard code
the password instead of parameter, for google and yahoo. Road runner, well,
of course that is a paid service. I also have code that works for a GE
server but of course that smtp server will not serve the public.

Sub Yahoo(FilPath as string, recipientlist as string, MyPassword as string,
mailid as string, SomeMessage as string, Somesubject as string)
Dim Password As String, UserName As String
Dim iMsg, iConf, Flds

On Error Resume Next
UserName = mailid
Password = MyPassword

Set iMsg = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set iConf = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")
Set Flds = iConf.Fields

schema = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/"
Flds.Item(schema & "sendusing") = 2
Flds.Item(schema & "smtpserver") = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com"
Flds.Item(schema & "smtpserverport") = 465
Flds.Item(schema & "smtpauthenticate") = 1
Flds.Item(schema & "sendusername") = left(mailid,instr(mailid,"@")-1)
Flds.Item(schema & "sendpassword") = Password
Flds.Item(schema & "smtpusessl") = 1
Flds.Update

With iMsg
.To = recipientlist
.From = "<" & UserName & ">"
  .TextBody = SomeMessage
  .Subject = Somesubject
'.HTMLBody = Message
'.Sender = "Myname"
'.Organization = "Myname"
'.ReplyTo = "myemail at mydomain.com"
  .AddAttachment FilPath
  End If
  Set .Configuration = iConf
  Err.Clear
  .send
  If Err.Number <> 0 Then _
	'write an error log to a text file?
End With
