Hopefully someone can help me with this. When I set up email activation, the URL that comes through is as follows:

To activate your membership for Aventis Australia Forum click on the link below: -

http://intranet.syd.pharma.aventis.com/salesm/sales_train/webwiz/activateasp?ID=aumacdonaldk79CAZ3C9ZA - http://intranet.syd.pharma.aventis.com/salesm/sales_train/we bwiz/activateasp?ID=aumacdonaldk79CAZ3C9ZA

The path is correct - but as you can see I'm getting activateasp? instead of activate.asp? If I cut and paste into a browser and insert the . all is well.

I have had a look at the register.asp code and I cant see what is causing the problem.

Help...please??

Have you done any mods to the code? I had a look in V 7.7a and it says activate.asp

Not sure what's going on there.

The problem is a bug in MS's CDONTS email component.

One solution is that as it always happens areond character 72 in a line is to shorten the URL to your forum.

A better solution is to use CDOSYS instead as this is MS's replacement to CDONTS.
