Please post your questions, remarks and solutions about Mail Component problems here. The reference I'm preparing can be found here: Ref: Mail Component Encoding Support .

This is likely to be a big problem, since most instances of this component are likely to be the free one.
Huw, sorry for cut/pasting your post here. That topic was ment to be reference material  .
Yes, this is one of the major problems we have. I've left this to the end because of this reason. What I'm thinking is to warn people about this fact during setup.
Unfortunately, there is no status field/method for version check in this component. Some have, some have no support for multilanguage at all.
If we want to make the e-mails non-English (which is a must), we will have incompatibility issues with the current state of art...

OK, here is one solution for the free version, a undocumented property, that I found from their support site:
http://support.persits.com/show.asp?code=PS01081766
quote:
Article PS01081766
HOWTO: Determining whether an eval or full version of a component is installed
Problem Summary
This article describes how to determine programmatically whether an evaluation or full version of a component is installed, and if it is an eval version, when it expires.
Solution
All Persits Software products (except JUpload) expose the property Expires of the type Date. This property returns the value "9/9/9999" if a full version is installed, or the expiration date otherwise.
For example, the following code snippet determines whether the current installation of AspUpload is a registered or eval copy, and displays the expiration date in the latter case:
Set Upload = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Upload.1")
If Upload.Expires <> CDate("9/9/9999") Then
Response.Write "AspUpload expires on " & Upload.Expires
Else
Response.Write "You are running a registered copy."
End If
This will solve out problem of warning the user at least until the day "9/9/9999"...

Here is the version check function for ASPMail in case it is needed:
quote:
Version
Gets the internal component version number.
Example:
Response.Write "Component Version: " & Mailer.Version

Just a question. What about other Mail components like SmartMail.
Is it up to the users to implement other components or should the be inserted with the standard code?< |

I found and checked it here: http://www.virtualzone.de/smartmail/
It is a normal mail server, not a component... For example in an intranet environment, you will write it's address in the e-mail server boz. That's it and doesn't have much to do with inc_mail.asp...

I see It seems to be old enough in Internet time for being considered here.
It says that it supports us-ascii, there is the charset and contenttype properties, which allows html. Did you try this:
mySmartMail.Charset = "ISO-8859-1 "
mySmartMail.ContentType = "text/plain"
quote:
Charset
The character set.
Syntax
.Charset
Default value
"us-ascii"
Example
<%
mySmartMail.Charset = "ISO-8859-1 "
%>

Oh yeah, you need to have v2.5 to use 8 bit charsets (leave alone unicode ). I incident support = 159 usd  < |

Hi,
i've not fully tested this component. The User asked me to implement it in the code, because was the only way for him to become eMail support for the forum.
All i've done was simple sendmail over the Forum to make sure the email will reach the user.
But i think there is no problem with it, the user seems to be lucky with it.
I can do some more testing with that component. Will write soon here.< |
