objNewMail.Send( [From] [, To] [, Subject] [, Body] )
You can create the instance of NewMail Object with the following code.

Let us see how we can use CDONTS. Newmail Object to send mail from an ASP Page.
<% Option Explicit Dim objNewMail ' First, create an instance of NewMail Object Set objNewMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") ' After an instance of NewMail Object has been created. ' If you like you can use this one line of code to send the mail. ' objNewMail.Send From, To, Subject, Message ' or you can give every value separate objNewMail.From = "webmaster@devasp.com" objNewMail.To = "test@devasp.com" ' Please replace the "From" and "To" email addresses with your ' own valid email address. I receive too many emails ' from people who test this sample and keep sending ' emails to test@devasp.com, or they keep the "From" property ' as webmaster@devasp.com and I get the response of ' undeliverable emails. ' NOTE: If the "To" or "From" properties of CDONTS contain ' invalid email address you will not receive the email. objNewMail.Subject = "This is a test Mail" objNewMail.Body = "This is the Body text of this test mail." objNewMail.Send ' After the Send method, NewMail Object becomes Invalid ' You should set it to nothing to relieve the memory Set objNewMail = Nothing ' If you want to send another mail ' you have to create a new instance of NewMail Object again. Response.Write "Email has been sent" %> |
