Hello,
We have a forum for our clients, so nobody can register him self
we do that with the admin but when we make a new account in the admin it isnt send to the email we filled in.

How can i (re)send a welcome email with the username and password to a user we created in the admin

-------------

well one way would be to look at the database itself and send an email manually... easier if you only have to do it once... if you want an easily *repeatabe* solution: welcome to the wonderful world of cdo...

Set emailvar = CreateObject("CDO.Message")

Set configvar = CreateObject("CDO.Configuration")

configvar.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "123.123.123.123"

configvar.Fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25

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

configvar.Fields.Update

Set emailvar.Configuration = configvar

sql = "SELECT username, password, email where id=" & theid

vrec.open sql, adoCon

emailvar.to = vrec("email")

emailvar.from = whatever email you want (prolly mailto:admin@yoursite.com - admin@yoursite.com )

emailvar.subject = "Your Login Details"

emailvar.textbody = "Login: " & vrec("username") & vbcrlf & vbcrlf & "Password: " & vrec("password")

emailvar.send

then close all your stuff and you're done...
