Asp cdo mail

You're referring to ASP (Active Server Pages) and CDOMail!

CDOMail is a component of ASP that allows you to send email messages programmatically from your ASP pages. Here's a brief overview:

What is CDOMail?

CDOMail is a COM (Component Object Model) component that provides a way to send email messages from an ASP page. It's a wrapper around the CDOSYS (Collaboration Data Objects for System Management) component, which is a part of the Windows operating system.

How to use CDOMail in ASP

To use CDOMail in an ASP page, you need to:

1. Create an instance of the CDOMail object using the CreateObject method.
2. Set the necessary properties, such as the sender's email address, recipient's email address, subject, and body of the email.
3. Call the Send method to send the email.

Here's an example code snippet:

<%
Dim objCDOMail
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

objCDOMail.From = "[email protected]"
objCDOMail.To = "[email protected]"
objCDOMail.Subject = "Test Email"
objCDOMail.Body = "This is a test email sent using CDOMail"

objCDOMail.Send
Set objCDOMail = Nothing
%>

Advantages and limitations

CDOMail provides a convenient way to send email from an ASP page, but it has some limitations:

• It's only available on Windows-based servers.
• It requires the CDOSYS component to be installed and configured correctly.
• It's not as flexible as other email sending libraries, such as.NET's System.Net.Mail namespace.

Overall, CDOMail is a useful component for sending email from ASP pages, but it's not as widely used as other email sending libraries due to its limitations.
