This could be coursed by one of your members having a malformed email address, or your web host may have a limit on the number of emails you can send.

Very little, the mass email tool is only very simple. If you want to use mass email then I would recommend using a dedicated mailing list application like Web Wiz Mailing List available from the ASP section of this site.

I found that,

There is a few members that registered with malformed email addresses

for example first one is like this

www.name@yahoo.com
 
and second type is like this
 
www.name@.yahoo.com  or this  name@.yahoo.com

this is the problem to preventing  sending email to all

OK now how can I prevent users to don't register with above email formats?

Or how can I make a function to to prevent mass mailer to send email to this emails?

Thanks borg
Plz help me

OK
I figured out the problem with this replacements

  strEmail = Replace(strEmail, "@.", "@", 1, -1, 1)
  strEmail = Replace(strEmail, "www.", "", 1, -1, 1)

But how can I tell it to just check for "www." before "@" ?
Confused

The system already has a check in place for malformed email addresses, but as people will enter all sorts of things you can never be 100% sure that the email address is correct.

for exapmle  entering  " / "  in email address can damage all mass mailer system  so its better to make a filter for it to prevent entering this type of emails in database
