i used asp to send an email to user and i wrote this code

Dim objCDOMail
       Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
       objCDOMail.From = " mailto:tbagis@kau.edu.sa - tbagis@kau.edu.sa "
       objCDOMail.To = " mailto:joud_islam@hotmail.com - joud_islam@hotmail.com "
       objCDOMail.Subject = "Enquiry sent from my web site"
       objCDOMail.BodyFormat = 0
       objCDOMail.MailFormat = 0
       objCDOMail.Body = "<h2>Hello</h2><br><b>This is my e-mail in HTML format</b>"
       objCDOMail.Importance = 1
       objCDOMail.Send
       Set objCDOMail = Nothing

but it didn't work and the page display this error:

Error Type:

If you are on XP it no longer supports CDONTS. User CDO.Mail or any other component you have installed.

CDO comes with Windows XP Pro. It's installed when you install iis/mail/ftp. Not part of the standard install, so you have to install them from yor windows CD.

are you mean replace the statement of

Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")

Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.NewMail")

i did do that but also the error was

Invalid class string

thank you for your answer

This is how i normally use the CDO class.


Dim objCDOMail
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
objCDOMail.From = "from@email"
objCDOMail.To = "to@email"
objCDOMail.Subject = "Subject"
objCDOMail.HTMLBody = "MESSAGE BODY"
  objCDOMail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
  objCDOMail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "SMTP SERVER"
  objCDOMail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25 
objCDOMail.Configuration.Fields.Update
objCDOMail.Send
Set objCDOMail = Nothing

You have to replace "SMTP SERVER" with the path/name of your smtp server. - e.g. mail.example.com or localhost, etc.

how can i know yhe path of the server?

are you mean this statement?

objCDOMail.Configuration.Fields.Item(" http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver - http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver ") = "localhost"

if you mean that i did do it but the error is still the same

The transport failed to connect to the server.
