Hi again DMXZone..

I'm hoping you can save my life (again!)

I've been asked to create a few pages on a clients web site and one of them is an e0mail form...

Their host is using IIS6 (Win2K3) and my existing CDONTS doesn't work...

I called the host (easynet) and they said that CDONTS is not installed on their new IIS6 servers. I was told to use their SMTP server for which I now have the address...

My question is how do I do this? I've searched the internet and can't make head not tail of it...

My old code (CDONTS) is below:

' ** Simple program using CDONTS object **

Dim mybody

Set objMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail"

objMail.From = " "
objMail.Subject = "From Web site - Submit equipment details form"
objMail.To = " "

mybody = "Company Name: " & request.form("f_companyname" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "Contact Name: " & request.form("f_contactname" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "Telephone Number: " & request.form("f_tel" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "Fax Number: " & request.form("f_fax" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "E-mail Address: " & request.form("f_email" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "System type for sale: " & request.form("f_systemtype" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "System model for sale: " & request.form("f_model" & vbCrLf
mybody = mybody & "Other information: " & request.form("f_other" & vbCrLf

objMail.Body = mybody
objMail.Send

'Killing the object
set objMail = nothing
%>

Can you please point me in the right direction as I'm a little confused!

Thanks again and please be gentle with me..! ASP is not my strong point!

I've just been told my their tech sup that I can use CDO... Are there any decent articles on using this that I can read?

Thanks
Richard

Good information about CDONTS: www.devasp.com/Samples/mail.asp

I would suggest you to use CDOSYS. It has many advantages. (e.g. faster)

Thank you!!

I've used CDO and all is now great... Strange thought that I had to copy and paste some microsoft url's into the program and I have no idea why???

Cheers
