Hi,
I am reusing forum version 3.3.05 for an intranet purpose. Very simple config with everyone having most rights. everything works great except email. I have the forum on a different server than my mail server, I assume this is OK?
The testemailcomponent.asp found CDONTS on both servers (chiliCDONTS too). We have Exchange and Active directory on server with mail.
I have fiddled with the relay part of the Virtual SMTP server on my host but I cannot get email to the recipient. No errors, it just disappears.
If authentication is the problem, how do I edit the CDONTS case to send a username\password for my host? Otherwise, what else can I check.
case "cdonts"
Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject ("CDONTS.NewMail")
objNewMail.BodyFormat = 1
objNewMail.MailFormat = 0
on error resume next '## Ignore Errors
objNewMail.Send strSender, strRecipients, strSubject, strMessage
If Err <> 0 Then
Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>Your request was not sent due to the following error: " & Err.Description & "</li>"
End if
on error resume next '## Ignore Errors
I really DON"T want to have to upgrade, this lightly used forum is not worth the headache if it does not run smoothly.
Thanks |

Ok, firstly, even though the forum detects cdonts it does not mean that it will work, just that cdonts is installed, as it is on most windows servers, however to get cdonts to work you must enable miscrfts IIS SMTP server and set it up to point at your mail server, you can then use cdonts.

Thanks, that is encouraging. I assume that IIS' SMTP Server that you refer to is the one I was referring too?
"I have fiddled with the relay part of the Virtual SMTP server on my host but I cannot get email to the recipient. No errors, it just disappears."
Where and what in here do I need to set or point to my mail server? I tried to make it except all but I really don't know what to do specifically
Thanks again
