Bozden, how will you handle email messages in the int'l version?

I know snitz won't use fso, however, what's your idea on reading an email template in html/txt format and parsing it in asp?
e.g.

Hello $$MemberName$$
.....

this is easier to maintain as the grammer won't be the same in different languages, however fso will slow down the processing a bit, right?

I wish the server would cache the file to be read by fso in memory but I haven't found out if it does it.

I don't know exactly, but I have some ideas and I'll implement them in the following days. For sure will not use FSO.

We will possibly use a similar approach, maybe re-writing the text in these messages. As v4 is supporting multiple languages (and multiple encodings) and every single e-mail component supports only a few of possible encodings, I even think of assigning different components for different languages.

As far as your Q goes:
* FSO will slow down, but it will only be used when an e-mail is to be sent.
* The components use very large periods to interact with the e-mail server (1-3 seconds in my tests), so the FSO overhead will be not the important issue...
* So you can can keep it in memory (in a string)...
