  U need to set SSL Setting too.

  but after setting ssl to 1 i m unable to send mail.

  I got the email code from my own site where i used gmail to send mail .

  & my code works fine dunno why wwf with port & smtp not sending mail.

thanks




Changing the port won't just work, any way. It is because of the way functions_send_mail.asp has been coded, there is no way you can define SSL / STARTTLS with WWF even with version 9! Gmail requires you to do this to use gmail's smtp.

But this can be done with two lines of code :)

The Solution

I guess as v9.02 is out there, it is appropriate to post it here.

I forgot what was in wwf v8.06. But i guess v8.06 ddid not use SMTP authentication. You need to re-code function_send_mail.asp

can you post the lines that start with With objCDOSYSCon and ends with End With so that i can look into and tell you what to do.

SMTP authentication is available in 8.06 you enter the authentication details into the admin area.

Thank you -boRg- for your attention on this post.

Just a note situation like this, wouldn't it be better if we cud download old versions?


Sending email using smtp.gmail.com requires STARTTLS that is why i am asking for the code.

Not really as you should always be running the latest version, as it fixes bugs, improves security, etc.

If you run an older version then you leave yourself wide open to hackers, and if you have a support issue it's usually related to something which is fixed in a new version.

End If

'Timeout

.Fields.Update

End With



Above code is similar which i use my site to send mail but it is not working with wwf

I changed the port & server as gmail required &
ssl to 1

thanks

That is true. -boRg-

WWF is a great application. I just love it. It's neat and clean and FAST! Just don't know how to thank you.
