You could look at how this forum code does the same thing.

There are many tutorials on asp email, try places like www.w3schools.com

in case you want to see the code here is the code and i am sure it is not with the code :

<%

If request("submit") <> "" THEN
Set objEMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set objConfig = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")
Set Confi = objConfig.Fields
Confi("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 1
Confi("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverpickupdirectory") = "C:\inetpub\mailroot\pickup"
Confi.Update
Set objEMail.Configuration = objConfig
objEMail.To = "qb_103@hotmail.com"
objEMail.From = Request("from")
objEMail.Subject = Request("subject")
objEMail.TextBody = Request("message")   
objEMail.Send
Set objEMail = Nothing

Response.Write("Message Sent")
Else

%>

<form method="post" action="email.asp">
From Email: <INPUT type=text name="from" size="20"><br />
Subject: <INPUT type=text name="subject" size="20"><br />
Message: <TEXTAREA name="message" rows=10 cols=40></TEXTAREA><br />
<INPUT type="submit" value="Send" name="submit">
</form>

<%
End If
%>

I'm thinking your smtp server isn't set up properly. You might look over the code in snitz that does emails, perhaps the code will give you some help.

Sorry it didn't work out. I don't use CDO myself and I'm not all that familiar with how to code CDO and what can go wrong.

One likely reason is your SMTP server fails a reverse DNS test.

There are many different junkmail filters, do some googling on all the different anti-spam features of email server.

Most mail server will let you whitelist a particular site or domain, perhaps you can identify your SMTP server to hotmail.

If there was a way, all spammers would be using it. Most free mail providers use their own rules to identify spam, some even mark all cdonts mail as spam.

Changing the sender from quince_103@hotmail.com to another email address.

Your mail server may require that email be sent from one of the domains setup on the mail server.
If it is setup that way you would have to use authentication in order to send yourself the email.

The code in inc_mail is already setup for this -

Set iConf = Server.CreateObject ("CDO.Configuration")
        	Set Flds = iConf.Fields 

	        'Set and update fields properties
        	Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 'cdoSendUsingPort
	        Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "mail.domain.com"
		Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = cdoBasic
		Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "me@domain.com"
		Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "password"
        	Flds.Update

	        Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
        	Set objNewMail.Configuration = iConf

		objNewMail.To = "qb_103@hotmail.com"
		objNewMail.From = Request("from")
		objNewMail.Subject = Request("subject")
		objNewMail.TextBody = Request("message")   
		objNewMail.Send

Actually now that I think about it, if your mail server wasn't setup like I have suggested above anyone could send mail through it. Not good.
