SIGH!
I'm exhausted. I have tried and retried to set up my email registration so it will send a confirmation email to the user upon registration...but nothing. I've tried each setting.
I have a paid Brinkster account with the following info:
Mail Server: sendmail2.brinkster.com
I have tried each E-mail Component available, but none of them work.
I contacted Brinkster, but they weren't much help (although they are usually great!).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a million.

Hi Dave,
I too share the same problem with Brinkster, however, I did solve part of the issue...
For the email server you would *not* use:sendmail2.brinkster.com
Instead you should use: mail.davemadethis.com (e.g. or whatever your domain is).
Now for the next problem...
I found that this works, but only for email addresses within my domain (e-mail addresses with the same domain address as yours; davemadethis.com e.g.). Any other e-mail address I get a "Can not use server as gateway" error message.
I'm still experimenting and trying to solve the last peice of the puzzele... I will keep you posted.
...or you should think of something please let me know. 
All the best and Happy New Year,
Robert

Dave,
Ok, I got the final piece!!!!
In addition to the instructions in my previous post (above); you need to go into inc_mail.asp and customize a few lines...
(Note: I choose to use "cdosys")
case "cdosys"
Set iConf = Server.CreateObject ("CDO.Configuration")
Set Flds = iConf.Fields
'Set and update fields properties
Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = strMailServer
Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 'cdoSendUsingPort
Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "admin@YourDomain.com"
Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "PASSWORD"
Flds("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate")= 1
You need to uncomment out all of those lines and add the account information. I will agree it's not the most secure thing to do, but it does solve the problem.
If someone has a better idea please feel free to correct me.
Once again... Have agreat New Year!
All the best,
Robert

Hi Robert:
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner on this. I've tried everything you said, double and triple checked it, but have had no luck. Hmmmm...I'm stumped.
