Actually What I am trying to do here is something like
as follows :

I have a local machine and use an ISP connection (
cabel modem / dial up ) to connect to 0internet. I have
configured a local domain in my IIS server and thus
can run the ASP in there but in order to send emails
out I need to use the SMTP server of my current ISP.

Is there any way to explicitly set the SMTP value
while using this object or any differnet workaround
that probably you can suggest.

FYI...I tried changing the default SMTP value to this
ISP SMTP value but after changing that the service
does not start.

Your help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

This should help you...


Set objCDO = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message"
With objCDO
.To = strTo
.From = strFrom
.Subject = strSubject
.TextBody = strBody
.Host = URL/IP OF THE TARGET SMTP SERVER GOES HERE
.Send
End With
Set objCDO = Nothing

There is an issue i am facing here.......

Actually, parallel to that i am also working on an application of sending email in VB using SMTP, the code picks up recepients email from a database, now when i am sending emails 1-by-1 after sending a few mails, a window popedup saying
"The number of mails sent exceeds for a perticular time period"

IS THERE ANY WAY THAT THE ISP/smtp CAN BE BY-PASSED TO DETECT MULTIPLE EMAILS SENT...?

looking forward to ur help in this matter

Your help is highly appreciated........

Thanks
AS

I see only two solutions to this:

1) get in touch with the ISP in question and see if this can be changed.

2) (and I don't condone this) the vast majority of mail enabled web servers allow anonymous usage of their SMTP services...this means that you can use virtually any public web server to bounce your mail off of.
