Brinkster doesn't have any email components on it's free accounts so you can not use any of the email features.

Free hosting accounts are usualy naff and have many features of full accounts disabled as they are to give you a taster in the hope you will upgrade to a paid account with all the features.

I have paid account and able to run other programs with email component as those have built in authentication option setting but webwiz forum has no such option. Is there anyway around this.
thanks

if you are using CDOSYS you can edit the send mail function file to use the username and password you set.

another way somehosts bypass the security is to allow you to set the mail server as localhost

then you wont need the authentication

The problem is haven't been able to get it to work. Can only send email to email accounts generated by my site such as mailto:name@mydomain.com - name@mydomain.com other emial like yahoo or msn will not get activation email generated.
this is what they recommend to be used but couldn't get it to work.
CDOSYS:
<%

Dim objEmail
Set objEmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")

objEmail.From = "you@domain.com"
objEmail.To = "user@domain.com"
objEmail.Subject = "Test message sent using the CDOSYS component"
objEmail.TextBody = "This is a test message."
With objEmail.Configuration.Fields
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "mail.YourDomain.com"
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "you@domain.com"
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "password"
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25
.Update
End With
objEmail.Send

Set objEmail = Nothing
%>

have contact support they keep giving me link to above code.
any idea how to change it.

no 1.

to add those items to the code open function_send_mail.asp within the functions folder and look for the case "CDOSYS"

under that there is a configuration section that looks simular the above.

add these lines (below).. to the section

          .Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2

.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "mail.YourDomain.com"

.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "you@domain.com"

.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "password"

.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
you can delete the duplicates like the mail server . then add the relavent details.

no 2.
 some hosts (some).. allow this, where it says mail server within the email configuration section of the forum enter localhost

and the other  details as already are. as i said somehosts allow this. but the above 2 ways are doable.. and the top.

Thanks dj air for your help. I have done that before, didn't work I don't know why but I got it to work 
this time. I have been working on this for last several weeks. 
In case someone has similar problem in addition to above I brought down database, added smtpid and smtppass 
colum to tblconfig in database and upload it to server. that did it.Smile
