Persits aspemail starttls

A blast from the past!

Persits ASPEmail is a popular ASP-based email component for Microsoft IIS, which allows you to send and receive emails from your ASP web applications. To use StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) with Persits ASPEmail, you'll need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Enable StartTLS in your email server

Make sure your email server (e.g., Exchange, Sendmail, Postfix) supports StartTLS. You may need to configure your email server to use a specific port for StartTLS (usually 587 or 25).

Step 2: Update your ASPEmail configuration

In your ASP code, update the ASPEmail object to use StartTLS. You can do this by setting the SMTPUseTLS property to True and specifying the StartTLS port:

Dim oEmail As New ASPEmail
oEmail.SMTPServer = "your.email.server.com"
oEmail.SMTPPort = 587 ' or 25, depending on your email server
oEmail.SMTPUseTLS = True

Step 3: Authenticate with your email server

Use the SMTPAuthenticate method to authenticate with your email server using your username and password:

oEmail.SMTPAuthenticate "your.username", "your.password"

Step 4: Send your email

Now you can send your email using the Send method:

oEmail.Send "[email protected]", "Subject", "Body"

That's it! With these steps, you should be able to use StartTLS with Persits ASPEmail to securely send and receive emails from your ASP web applications.

Remember to replace the placeholders (your.email.server.com, your.username, your.password, [email protected]) with your actual email server settings and credentials.
